Lace up your gym shoes, bring your medical questions, and grab a neighbor: Block Club Chicago is hosting our South Side Health & Wellness Fest on Saturday, November 7 and you’re invited.
Block Club Chicago and more than 25 community partners will convene for a day of resources, care and community spirit in service of our neighbors across the South Side. The event is free and open to the public, and we encourage advance registration. The event will take place at Shine Bright Community Center in Chatham at 8560 S. Cottage Grove.
The event kicks off at 9 a.m. with a fun run/community walk with various distances and pace groups led by Read & Run Chicago and Chicago Run around the Chatham neighborhood.
From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., attendees can access a range of health and wellness resources for free: get your blood pressure tested, receive a cardiac ultrasound, review insurance options (including Medicaid and Medicare), learn about mental and behavioral health resources, pick up free dental items, meet local midwives, experience a free chair massage, and more.
Two local workout groups will provide free low- and high-impact exercise classes at 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. and community healer Pilar Audain will offer two guided meditation sessions.
