Mount Saint Mary College will present its 26th annual Beth Roeper Health and Wellness Fair on Wednesday, April 24 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Hudson Hall, 330 Powell Ave., Newburgh,

Sponsored by the Mount’s Health Services Wellness Center, and David Melby with the Rose & Kiernan Inc. insurance agency, the event is free and open to the public.
The fair will feature free health screenings, interactive exhibits, door prizes, and raffles.

The health fair is named after former Mount Health Services director Beth Roeper.
