What Will You Be Doing on April Fools’ Day?

I hope you’ll be gathering your friends and family and heading over to the fourth annual Dauphin County women’s expo on Saturday, April 1—April Fools’ Day!

It’s always an exciting day, with vendors offering information on just about anything imaginable—pets, purses, healthcare, entertainment, leisure, finances, automobiles, jewelry, foods, home improvements, skin care, home décor, and more. And the best part is you can make purchases along the way!

While traveling around the show floor, stop and enjoy a free mini massage, sample some wine, and check out the activities happening on stage.

You can’t go wrong with fashions from Creative Elegance Boutique. Kathy Cadieux and her gals will take center stage for a fashion extravaganza. She’ll be featuring clothing and accessories by Brighton, Eliza J, Nic + Zoe, Alberto Mikali, Joseph Ribkoff and more!

Power Train Gym instructors will hold a cardio jam session inspired by the infectious, energizing, and sweat-dripping fun of playing the drums—POUND®. Maybe this fitness class will become your new favorite exercise program!

Darmayne Robertson, Food Network competitor and owner and head cake artist at Sweet Confections Cakes, will create an edible designer purse and shoes out of cake using butter cream and rolled fondant icing. Darmayne has been creating edible art for more than 20 years. Sweet!

Candice Luciani will take the stage to demonstrate the fundamentals of creating an effective resistance training workout. She will also discuss the essentials to being strong and fit and what women can do to battle common misconceptions about diet and exercise.

Pat Stefan from Stauffers of Kissel Hill believes that gardening should be fun, not work. Hear from the expert how to prepare the soil; how to grow vegetables in containers; and proper planting, plant care, and nutrition.

The Hottest and Bravest Firefighter” Contest is a great way to show support for local fire companies who can certainly use the community’s encouragement. Each $1 vote for the male or female firefighter of your choice benefits their respective fire station. We have the firefighter strut on stage and announce the winner. No bear chests but lots of fun.

Look for the LuLaRoe Pop-Up Shop where you can shop, try on, and purchase some of your favorite comfort wear.

Of course, lots more on tap and in the works because our aim is to give you a day that will have you saying, “Gee, that was a great way to spend my day.”
