Vista Community Clinic presents Family Fun Day with Health & Safety Education
in Vista Village on February 24th!
Vista Community Clinic has partnered with the Vista Village Business Association to present Family Fun Day with Health & Safety Education on Saturday, February 24th from 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM in the Vista Village Shopping Center along Main St near the Cinepolis Luxury Cinemas.
The goal is to provide a day full of fun and education for parents and children alike.
Each vendor or organization is being asked to create a kid-friendly activity that speaks to their mission and teach the next generation how to create a healthier and safer community. This will be a FREE event and families from all across the North County are invited to attend.
New this year, will be a group of local fitness, yoga, and martial arts studios to engage with. They will line Main St. with information on their classes and happenings. They too will have kid-friendly activities to participate in. We will have a central staging area in the plaza outside the theater, where groups will be offering live demonstrations and crash courses in their area of expertise. We are hoping this new component of the festival brings a higher attendance and markets our great health related businesses to our community.
Expected attendees include:
-Vista Community Clinic – will be providing information on services available at Vista Community Clinic as well having activities for the children. They will be offering FREE dental screening in their mobile unit in front of the theater. We thank VCC for their generous support of this event, and others in and around our community.
– Children’s Paradise- believes each child is a unique and valuable individual and must be offered equal opportunity and access to high quality early childhood education regardless of the income of their family. We thank Children’s Paradise for their sponsorship of multiple bounce houses to see our kids jumping and playing with their friends.

They are a local shelter placing adoptable cats and kittens into homes. A new area of adoptions are in home/businesses with rodents problems, as felines are nature’s rodent control.

This event is organized by the Vista Village Business Association working together with a group of merchants collectively known as the Vista Village Committee (VVC). This group of business owners and managers within Vista Village shopping center organized themselves for several years before falling under the heading of VVBA. Clair Bigbee, Owner Cold Stone Creamery, is the event champion for what we hope to see as a growing event that will continue to gain traction year after year. Bigbee says, “I am so pleased to continue to see this event grow and shape itself”.
Little Cakes Cupcake Kitchen owner, and Two-Time Winner of Food Network’s Cupcake Wars, Don Hein, is a member of the Vista Village Committee as well as the Immediate Past President of the VVBA. “Just like past events hosted in the center, Family Fun Day would not have been possible without the help and support of the Vista Village Business Association,” says Hein. “The VVBA has been very active with the Vista Village Committee and have been working one on one with us to keep these events going. We cannot wait to see what 2018 has in store for Vista, which has become the heart of North County.”
