KAO at Women’s Health & Wellness Night—May 7, 2015

A night of laughs and information is a great way to describe the first annual Women’s Health & Wellness Night sponsored by the Rainy Lake Medical Center Foundation.

Koochiching Aging Options was in on the fun as we (wo)manned a booth on the Backus Community Center’s stage in International Falls. Along with other area service and product providers, KAO Board Member Sarah Monahan and Caregiver Consultant/Program Specialist Gary Kaunonen spoke with hundreds of women who were enjoying a night out during the health and wellness expo.

The night’s theme centered on laughter as one of the best forms of “medicine” in treatment options. The night’s keynote speaker was Karla Heeter who spoke on the power of laughter in the face of daunting medical issues. Her presentation, entitled “If You’re too Busy to Laugh, You’re too Busy,” was both comical and touching.


The night ended with door prize giveaways, and among the other prizes handed out that night was a nicely appointed KAO logo t-shirt. It was a night of fun and information centered around women’s health and wellness, and KAO was happy to be a participant.
