The U.S. Air Forces in Europe Services will host its first Health and Fitness Expo at various bases at various bases May 27 to June 5. 

The Expo will combine a variety of vendors, health and fitness agencies and special events in an effort to showcase the advantages of healthy lifestyle choices and the fun fitness activities one can participate in. 

The Health and Fitness Expo will visit Spangdahlem June 3.

"The Expo is a way for Airmen and families to learn what their base offers in support of a healthy lifestyle," said Master Sgt. Paula Butler, USAFE fitness program manager. "The Expo is also a way of connecting our military communities with health and fitness opportunities, and it's designed to create awareness of all the activities and programs available."

Expos will take place at fitness centers as they offer more than just a place for Airmen and their families to workout - they also host intramural sports programs, personal trainers, pilates, yoga, spin classes and much more. During the expo there will be a circuit training demonstration, a spinning class and information booths.

Outdoor Recreation will participate in the Expo featuring activities such as hiking, camping, biking, skiing and snowboarding. The Health and Wellness Centers will be present and assist with nutrition information, smoking cessation and BMI and Youth Programs' Fit Factor program will offer something for the younger population.
