Essentia Health Fargo colleagues had the opportunity to ring the opening bell for the Red River Market’s Back to School Day last month. The market brings together artists, creators, entrepreneurs and businesses that spark connection, drive economic growth and uplift quality of life. Special kudos to Dr. Marasinghe and Kalee Wysuph for bringing fun and engaging activities for the kids!
