"Spring Into Health" Community Fair & 5K
The event features tours of the DHART emergency transport helicopter, a climbing wall and inflatable obstacle course, games to teach healthy habits, and valuable information from more than four dozen area non-profit safety, health and social service agencies. The NewBrook Fire Department serves a healthy lunch, and exciting door prizes will be awarded to several lucky participants. You can do wonders for your health and safety, and have fun too! Everyone is welcome, but please leave pets at home. Don’t miss this fun and informative event! Grace Cottage Hospital’s laboratory will also offer discounted rates for several blood tests for two weeks before the Health Fair, with results and free consultation available at the fair. These tests include: comprehensive metabolic and lipid profile (kidney, liver, cardiovascular system, electrolyte balance, and signs of diabetes) for $20; PSA (prostate) for $20; TSH (thyroid) for $10; Vitamin D for $25. Come for one or all of these tests Monday through Saturday, April 26 to May 10, 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. Payment must be with cash, check, or credit card (no insurance accepted for these reduced-priced tests). New this year, as a prelude to the Community Health Fair,
