The event is set for 10 a.m.-3 p.m. on Saturday, May 5 at Evergreen Middle School in Everett (7621 Beverly Ln.).

In its third year, the Youth & Family Wellness Fair is free and open the public. Fair-goers can enjoy a free lunch, music, and giveaways with special guests Tim Noah and the Son of the Reptile Man. Over 70 vendors and service providers will also have resources, workshops, and activities for children and their families, including early childhood development, bullying, suicide prevention, cultural competency, and parenting strategies.

This event wouldn't be possible without volunteers, and registration is now open. More than 100 volunteers are needed to greet guests, assist with workshops and even referee a basketball game. Volunteers are also needed to help with set-up for the event on Friday, May 4 from 3-6 p.m.
