COVID-19 Update

We want you to know that we are committed to cultivating a Medfest experience that is as safe as possible. Medworks continues to collaborate with County health officials and monitor the latest information and protocols regarding COVID-19 and the Delta variant. Here are steps that we are taking for the safety of our guests:

  • Century Village’s 63 acres provides a wonderful opportunity to enjoy social distancing, beautiful vistas, and fresh country air.
  • Medfest is designed as an outdoor event with tents, rain or shine. The CDC says it is less likely to contract or spread COVID-19 while outdoors and recommends seating options that are outside and have proper ventilation with outdoor air.
  • For the safety of all, disposable facemasks will be provided for any time spent indoors (i.e., restrooms). We encourage you to bring your own mask, if you’d like.
  • Bartenders, servers, and valet parking staff will wear facemasks during the event.
  • At this time, facemasks for attendees are optional while outdoors. This could change prior to the event. Of course, Medworks respects those who choose to wear a facemask at any time.
  • Hand sanitizer will be provided and easily accessible throughout the event.
  • The Medfest dinner tent has been upsized to allow for more spacing during the outdoor meal, with fewer people per table, and most guests are seated with people they chose to attend.
  • Medworks strongly encourages all Medfestattendees who are eligible to get fully vaccinated before the event. Please visit www.vaccines.gov to find a convenient location near you.
  • If not feeling well the day of the event, Medworks kindly requests that you choose to stay home.

As Federal, State, or County guidelines are updated, Medworks will adjust protocols to promote the safety and well-being of guests. While Medfest is intended as an outdoor event and it will adhere to guidelines in place at the time of the event, Medworks cannot prevent you from becoming exposed to, contracting, or spreading the virus while attending.

 

For the safety of the full Medfest community, guests should follow local guidelines and recommendations. We ask that guests refrain from attending Medfest if experiencing any COVID-like symptoms.

 

If you have any questions, please reach out to Executive Director, Jennifer Andress, at jennifer@medworksusa.org.

Join our co-chairs Franklin Malemud, Dan Moulthrop, Ken Outcalt, Kelley Kinney Vallone, Michael Weil Jr., and Elie Weiss for a fun-filled evening.

 

Tickets and sponsorships are very limited.  Reserve your spot now!

 

The secret sauce for Medfest’s unique blend of fun has always been in its merry mix of guests. Old friends, new friends, great vibes, generous spirits, and lots of good belly laughs. People coming together to have fun and to help people.  We hope you will be part of it!

 

Can’t join Medfest 2021?  We are sorry to miss you this year, but we are very grateful for your support!

For nearly 13 years, Medworks has provided 100% free medical, vision, dental, and mental health care to uninsured and underinsured communities in Northeast Ohio. Our goal is to help people access, navigate, and connect with the local resources they need to be healthy. To do this, Medworks harnesses the power of community, bringing together partners and volunteers who share this vision to Care + Connect. While Medworks has always been committed to providing essential care for our community’s most vulnerable families, we cannot think of a more important time for this work to continue. 

 

Nearly 20% of Medworks operating budget is funded by Medfest and it represents a critical source of support for our work. Thank you very much for your support.
