Getting Chilly For A Cause!

It was a bit brisk this morning, but the Wimmer Chiropractic team was honored to be a part of a great event today. We often go out into the community for different business expos, health fairs, Pampered Employee events, etc. But, it is very rewarding to be involved with events that help local and global causes.

The Gifts for Gulu 2012 "Water for Life" 5K and Kids' Fun Runs was held this morning on the beautiful campus of Lynchburg College. The program provides clean water and other health programs for Gulu, Uganda. Canned foods were also collected today for local food-banks. We were there to provide assisted stretching and chair massages for the participants, volunteers and spectators.

I will admit, we were inside before the race started, but once the race began and the sun came out, we moved our table and chairs outside to catch the end of the 5K and provide our services while the kids were racing and awards were given.

Here is a short video of some of the day's great moments!

  1. Love seeing Elsie (LC's Hornet ... get it? Elsie/LC) getting a massage. Now you just need to get her in for an adjustment.
