The summer solstice, marking the longest day of the year, has been designated the "Longest Day of Play." On June 20, 2024, Bracken County 4-H partnered with the Bracken County Health Department to host this event at Taylor Elementary. The event featured various groups providing health information to the community. Primary Plus doctors were on site offering school and sports physicals, car seat checks, and HPV vaccines. Additionally, there were activities promoting sunscreen awareness and water safety. Attendees enjoyed a wide variety of water games, including an inflatable water slide. Feedback from the attendees was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing hope that this program will continue to grow.
