Trach Fair
On July 10th, I hosted a Tracheostomy Education and Vendor Fair at . This is the 2nd year I organized this event. It’s a very non-stress event for families so come through and meet some vendors that provide their equipment and find out about new community services for their child. While I had some repeat vendors that came back (yay!), I did have several new vendors showing off their products and services. In total, there were 30 vendor booths!
Last year we had around 100 people come through, so I had hoped that I would at least have a little more visitors this year. I even had a dream that only 3 people came (the stress was speaking there I think). So after all my hard work and planning, the day came and within minutes of opening, I had more than 3 visitors (phew!). All in all, I would say between 150-200 people came through and many people told me on their way out that they had learned some new things.
I plan on doing this event again next July and hopefully every year I will get better and better at planning and the Fair will grow even more next year!
