Check out the parking lot next time you're at Walgreens - there may be a bus-load of health screenings there.

The Way to Well Health Tour is visiting the Valley, making a stop at the Walgreens on U.S. 41 in Terre Haute on Thursday.
   
The tour offers over $100 worth of free screenings to the community.
   
It's part of the company's initiative to improve the health of Americans.

"People everywhere that need help...they haven't been to the doctor in several years so we're doing our best to reach as many people as we can," said Grace Hatcher, certified wellness staff on the Way to Wellness Tour.

"Early detection is the key to prevention, so if you know you're in a dangerous range, you're at risk for today's chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease and diabetes."


The tour continues:
Friday, 10 a.m.-4p.m.: Booker T. Washington Community Center, 1101 S. 13th Street, Terre Haute

Monday, 11 a.m.-5p.m.: Walgreens, 5001 E. National Ave, Brazil.
