MidState Medical Center is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the 14th Annual Meriden Rotary 5K Road Race/Walk & Kids Fun Run. MidState is the headline sponsor for this event.

The road race is a long standing event in the Meriden community and is well aligned with MidState's mission of "improving the health and healing of the people and communities we serve."

"As a hospital, we must not only care for people when they are sick, but provide education and encourage healthy lifestyles that help prevent chronic diseases. The road race put on by the Meriden Rotary is a loved event by the community and provides a great opportunity to enjoy the spring and keep active," said Pamela Cruz, manager of community relations at MidState.

The 5K road race is set for Sunday, April 21 at 10:00 a.m. at Hubbard Park; the Kids Fun Run will start at 9:45 a.m. Registration starts at 8:00 a.m. The cost to register is $25 before Apr. 19; $30 for day-of registration; and $5 for the Kids Fun Run.
