Women’s Health Fund Announces 5K Run/Walk

(Mason City) –The Cerro Gordo County Women’s Health Fund will be hosting Lace Up, Leash Up, Line Up, the first annual 5K walk/run for running and walking enthusiasts and dog lovers on Saturday, June 9, 2012.

The race will start at City Park in Clear Lake and travel around the beautiful lake. Registration will begin at 7:00 AM. The 5K run will proceed at 8:30 AM followed by the 5K walk starting at 9:00 AM. Event fee which includes a t-shirt is $25 per participant. A silent auction will be held in the Lakeview Community room during the event.

Currently, the Cerro Gordo County Department of Public Health is a partner with the Iowa Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program Grant. This grant allows women in Cerro Gordo County between the ages of 40-64 who are under-insured or who have no health insurance, the opportunity to receive pelvic exams, pap smears, mammograms, breast screenings and other health resources. The grant is limited and cannot cover all expenses or serve all women in need. The Women’s Health Fund was established by the Health Department to cover medical expenses women incur in the screening and diagnostic process. The money stays local to serve women in Cerro Gordo County who receive care at our local clinics and facilities.

To register for the race or to learn more about Lace Up, Leash Up, Line Up, please visit www.cghealth.com or call (641) 421-9315.
