The Heart & Stroke Health Expo 2007 was held at the East Hills Mall on Saturday, Feb. 10. It spread mainly throughout the middle of the mall, with the food court taking center stage. There were myriad booths providing health screenings and information, all free to the public.

A fairly large turnout participated in all sorts of health assessments (from cholesterol screenings to EKG recordings) as well as drawings, which took place every thirty minutes.
