This family-friendly event is set to take place on Saturday, June 29, at Lima Memorial Main Campus. All community members are invited to join in this celebration of health, wellness and 125 years of Great Care.
“This event perfectly represents the many milestones we have reached on our 125-year journey,” shares Sam Schroeder, LMHS Lab Director and 5K Host. “We are excited to celebrate with our Lima Memorial Family and community to promote health and citizenship during this historic year.”
