The Strong Baby campaign promotes healthy behaviors among Knox County families to help make sure babies are born healthy, safe and strong. Now, local parents have a chance to have their little one star in the 2017 Strong Baby campaign.

A live casting call will take place on Saturday, October 1 from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.at the Knox County Health Department's main office, 140 Dameron Ave.

To be eligible, babies must be between 7 and 18 months old at the time of the casting call and live in East Tennessee. No talent experience is necessary. Parents do not need to pre-register and may come any time between 11 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 1.

In addition to taking home a $200 U.S. savings bond, the winning babies will appear on billboards, social media, and web banners in the coming year. Winners will be chosen by a panel of judges and announced in early November.

No need to register in advance; just bring your little one to the health department on Saturday, Oct. 1. Free parking is available across the street. If you have any questions, please call 865-215-5170 or email strongbaby@knoxcounty.org.
