From the Organizer
St. Tammany Health System, Presenting Sponsor, Chevron, and our host, the City of Covington, invite you to the 3rd Annual St. Tammany UNITED in Lung Health — Power of Pearl Lung Cancer Walk. Join survivors, and families and friends as they walk to promote lung cancer awareness or walk in memory of a loved one who harnessed the Power of Pearl during their journey. Enjoy inspirational survivor stories, live music, great food, and countless resources. In our Resource Village medical experts will provide education on lung cancer prevention; screening options to identify lung cancer in its early stages when survival rates are highest; and risk factors and screening options if you or a loved one is at high-risk for lung cancer.
