Community Engagement: June 2022

Essentia Health Fargo Marathon

Congratulations to all who participated in the 2022 Essentia Health Fargo Marathon activities! This exciting week of events included a cyclothon, dog run, kid's race, 5k, 10k, half marathon, and full marathon.

Kudos to our Essentia Health colleagues who volunteered and made these events extra special for participants.

Cuyuna Pickleball Association Donation

Essentia Health St. Joseph's Foundation recently granted $10,000 to Cuyuna Pickleball Association in support of building six new pickleball courts in Ironton.

Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the US and promotes health, fitness and especially social interaction. Pickleball is a great intergenerational sport for community members of all ages! 

Volunteers in Action

Essentia team members are in full volunteer force! From participating in the Musky Fest Parade in Hayward, WI and helping at the Second Harvest Northern Lakes Food Bank in Duluth, MN, to riding in the Graceville Bike Rodeo and getting in their steps in the Runnin' with Sasquatch 5k in Minong, WI, this has been a busy summer!
