Objective
To provide a forum for diverse health care
providers interested in the holistic approach to healthcare.
Venue
Within a
day's drive of two-thirds of the population of the United States,
Lexington is strategically located at the intersection of
interstates 64 and 75. Lexington is accessible by air with
approximately 100 direct and nonstop flights. Fayette County
consists of 283 square miles of gently rolling plateau in the center
of the inner Bluegrass Region. The area is noted for its beauty,
fertile soil, excellent pastureland and horse and stock farms. Poa
Pratensis (bluegrass) thrives on the limestone beneath the soil's
surface, playing a major role in the area's scenic beauty and in the
development of champion horses. Numerous small creeks rise and flow
into the Kentucky River. More than 3,000 acres in Fayette County are
designated as park facilities. The four largest are Jacobson Park,
Masterson Station Park, Shillito Park and Woodland Park. The area
also offers 15 public and semi-private golf courses, including the
Pete Dye designed, championship-caliber Kearney Hill Links. Inspired
to go riding in the Horse Capital of the World? Horseback riding is
available at the Kentucky Horse Park and a number of area stables.
