» 2010 Diabetes Walk

The 2010 Diabetes Walk will be held on Saturday, March 27, 2010 at the Golden Valley Memorial Healthcare Medical Plaza in Clinton, MO at 8 am. We are in need of team captains. Captains are in charge of getting participants to walk with you. A team can be anywhere from 2 - 20 people or more. The money raised stays locally and helps anyone in the area. This money can be used to buy prescriptions, education, diabetic shoes, eye exams, and dental exams. So come on out and support this cause! If you would like to be a team captain, please call 660-885-2253, ext. 6081. more info...
