Posted on May 10, 2011 by Ron Largent
As some of you may know, the United Way is going to be having a Special Event, a Health Weekend, that we are calling “Extreme Health Weekend”. We are just in the planning stage…and the ideas below are ideas that have been presented so far. We intend to make this a huge community-wide event…and if the subject is Health…or even directly or indirectly connected to Health, we want it as part of the weekend. Some of you are involved in the subjects listed below, or know of someone that should know of this event…thus this initial e-mail.
Here is what we are thinking of, based on what we have heard, etc…we will talk this through on Wednesday….and you are invited to our planning meeting to be held at our office at 4 PM Wednesday. We hope to keep it an hour meeting…and hope you can attend….and if you can’t, please pass the word. Event Coordinator will be Marlene Woodard.
