A Free Community Event

Did you know that 1 in 23 people will be diagnosed with colon cancer?

Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death, but it’s the most treatable when caught early.

What’s happening at the event?

• Tour a GIANT Inflatable Colon – A fun, interactive way to explore colon health
• Learn about your screening options
• Get Screened – Eligible patients may be able to receive either a blood test, a free FIT kit or find out where they can sign up for a colonoscopy. Those interested in screening should bring their ID and insurance card
• Talk to a Health Expert – Ask questions and get tips for a healthier gut
• Enjoy Delicious Treats from the Colon Cancer Coalition
