Essentia has been sponsoring this day at the market for the past three years.
FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) – This weekend’s installment of the Red River Market was a special one for the kiddos.
Saturday was Kids’ Day.
There were a good deal of kid-specific activities, plus Essentia doctors on hand to meet with the kids and give advice to parents.
Folkways staff say that this is crucial for getting kids more comfortable with physicians and medicine and steering parents in the right direction for back-to-school season.
“Essentia has stepped up, they’ve sponsored Kids Day for the past three years,” explained Emma McIntyre, Manager of Development for Folkways. “They provide parents the opportunity to meet with physicians before the school year starts, which is fantastic.”
