Posted on by

RLE 2014-92SEDONA — As a trusted news source (sort of like FOX. Depends on who you talk to.), we receive up to four recalls of processed foods daily. With this in mind one has to wonder where to find a source of information for real food. The 3rd annual Pure Living Expo and Conference coming to Sedona might be the answer.

Formerly known as the Raw Living Expo, the Pure Living Expo explores the connection between food, health and ecology. The Pure Living Expo attracts a global group of health enthusiasts, hungry for change, for three days of panels, demos, meals and parties.

The Expo boasts over 45 professional chefs and keynote speakers providing workshops on gluten free, non-GMO and organic plant based nutrition. Over 50 pure and other companies will provide displays in the Exhibit Hall showcase. Exhibitor Booths and Sponsor packages are still available but space is limited.

In addition to the Expo and Conference there will also be several parties and receptions. One to benefit the Sedona Food Bank by providing non-GMO foods to the organization.

Pure Living Expo found Chireya Fox state in a press release:

“With over 45 presenters, the Pure Living Expo & Conference features professional chef demos, keynote speakers, workshops, the Best of Raw Awards gala, receptions, outdoor gardening skills, after parties, and more.”

The Expo will be held at the Hilton Sedona Resort and Spa in Sedona. VIP Platinum Tickets help participants enjoy a luxurious and exclusive experience including the Pure Living Awesomeness Lounge, reserved front row seats, and a VIP Reception Thursday, July 23.

Gold Tickets give full access to all Expo and Conference programming. “Expo Hall Only” passes will be launched later in the season and include access to one workshop or talk, morning yoga and the Pure Living Cafe.

WILLIAMS — With all that transpired over the weekend, we now have time to congratulate Bearizona on the occasion of their 5th anniversary. Bearizona was established on May 22, 2010 and has since grown to one of the most popular attractions to Williams.

Bearizona opened May 22, 2010 and has already grown to be a top tourist destination in Arizona. It was recently voted one of the top 10 drive through wildlife parks in the entire country by USA Today, and was last year’s recipient of the Governor’s Tourism Champion of the Year award. They have been featured on national and local television programs. They seem to be most popular in the spring when the bear cubs are born.

In their effort to educate people about wild life, they had started a summer day camp for youth ages 6 to 15. This year the day camp will begin June 29 and run through July 3. Tickets are apparently still available. They host Home School Visitation days. They held one on April 3 and May 1. They will host two more this year on September 4 and October 2.

As usual, the staff provided the animals with special treats to mark the occasion. These snacks look scrumptious and sweet and might lead the visitor to believe that they can provide similar sweets to the animals. The celebratory snacks, however, are carefully prepared by the staff for the animals and their specific dietary needs. Visitors should not attempt to feed the animals.
