North Central Public Health District (NCPHD) is excited to partner with Oregon Health Authority (OHA) at this year’s Wasco County Children’s Fair to educate the public about the dangers of lead poisoning. OHA is offering free, confidential lead screening for soil and children’s toys on May 18th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Children’s Fair at The Dalles City Park.

Did you know? Although lead is invisible to the naked eye and has no smell, exposure to lead can seriously harm a child’s health? Young children tend to put their hands, toys, or other objects―which may be made of lead or contaminated with lead or lead dust―into their mouths.

Collecting soil to bring for testing is easy. All you need is a plastic zip-close bag and spoon. For this event, prepare at least 2 cups of dry soil taken from your yard, play area, or garden. Soil must be dry before the event and placed in clear plastic baggies, so dig your sample a few days before the event.

If you want to test your children’s toys, they should be made from plastic or wood, have a smooth, flat surface, and be at least 2”x2” in size.

Screening results are confidential and provided same-day!

If lead is detected, we will share practical low-cost or no-cost exposure prevention tips and safe gardening advice for the whole family. Visit Oregon Health Authority’s soil screening webpage at www.oregon.gov/soilshoporegon to learn more about how to prepare your samples.
