This Saturday, September 12, the Well Being and Fitness Festival takes place from 11am to 4pm, at the Santa Monica Civic Parking Lot! The annual festival celebrates Santa Monica by showcasing the services and products of Santa Monica businesses to the 6000 locals and visitors at the Civic Center outdoor area.

Local businesses and non-profits gather at the Festival to provide expertise, advice, and product samples promoting a healthy and happy lifestyle for the entire Santa Monica Community. Stores and restaurants from every neighborhood will have food and vendor booths. There will be music, cooking demos and interactive classes on stages and lots of opportunities to get free resources and screenings.

New SM business owner Shane Griffin said he is excited to be a part of this event. His business, Whole Life Balance with Drip iv Therapy just celebrated a grand opening this past Wednesday, September 9 and will be a presenting sponsor at the event.

Griffin knows first hand how important it is to be health conscious. Several years back, he had his own battle to fight (with drugs) and has since come out victorious. Clean and sober he now runs his own wellness center, and encourages others to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

As a member of the Santa Monica Chamber, Griffin is very involved with his community. He has reached out to many local charity events to lend support such as the Get Lucky for Lupus event in Hollywood and the Arthritis Foundation event. His company, Whole Life Balance will be a flagship sponsor for the Great Strides Walk Santa Monica for Cancer (on SM Pier – 10am) coming up on October 24, which has the goal of raising 35k for the 5k Walk.

Be sure to pop by the Well Being and Fitness Festival from 11-4pm. Whole Life Balance will be there at the Santa Monica Civic Center parking lot – corner of Pico & Main Street…stop in and say hi.
