Activities differ among each Fest and range from a dental pop-up clinic, complimentary vision screenings and vaccine clinics to massages, art therapy, fitness classes and more! You can also stop by the Fests to meet GW’s benefit vendor partners, ask questions, and receive assistance with the enrollment process. Virtual webinars, led by our vendor partners, will be offered throughout OE to provide details about the 2025 benefit programs.
