Southern Colorado Events!

Colorado Springs is moving and shaking with several projects in the works, especially the 5th annual Walk scheduled for Saturday, May 2nd at America the Beautiful Park. We are actively recruiting teams and volunteers. Visit our website www.arthritiswalk.kintera.org and register your team today and let’s walk together.

Several health fairs are scheduled during the month of April and the 2nd annual Arthritis Foundation Education day is scheduled for Saturday, June 6th at the Palisades at Broadmoor Park. As usual, this education is free and open to the public. Reservations will be required as seating will be limited. Space, food and beverage has been generously donated by the Palisades at Broadmoor Park.

Not only are we gearing up for upcoming “happenings in Colorado Springs” we successfully hosted our inaugural Commitment to a Cure luncheon on March 12th. It was exciting and inspiring at the same time to hear from those we service in our community and know that although we are still in search for a cure, the Arthritis Foundation is a resource for the millions who live with some type of Arthritis.

The Arthritis Foundation will celebrate its 17th annual Jewels of the Vine Wine Tasting on Saturday, September 26th at the Antlers Hilton Colorado Springs. This wine tasting is our signature fundraising event for Southern Colorado and continues to be a night of fun with live music and dancing, great items to bid on in both our live and silent auctions, and please let’s not forget the wonderful food and wine. Contact Cary Bement-Kelly or Paula Humber at 719-520-5711 for more details.

Live life and have a healthy day!
