I am taking a class called Health 4000. In this class we have to have a Lincs agency where we dedicate at least 40 volunteer hours to a place of our choice. I chose the Carlton County Public Health Services office. This coming week will be my first time working with them and there are a couple important events that I will be attending that I would like to talk about. The first event will take place on Wednesday, October 6th. This is the Moose Lake Fit City Day. Fit City Day is an event where they promote being active. Some fun things that will happen during this is you can take a walk with the mayor of Moose Lake, listen to two guest speakers, and receive discounts from local businesses. This event starts at 5:30 and it should be a lot of fun. Below I attached the poster if you would like to take a look and get more information.

I am also attending another event on Saturday, October 9th. This is the Suicide Awareness Memorial Walk. Carlton County is the fifth highest county in Minnesota for suicide attempts so this is a very important event for this community. Registration begins at 9:30 at the Four Seasons if you would like to join. This event consists of walking down the main street in Cloquet, then down highway 45, and finishes up on Munger Trail. The walk should only take approximately 30 minutes so if you are free come join us! :) Below I also attached the website flyer if you would like to take a look.
