Michigan CU Sponsors Hospital Foundation Fun Run/Walk

Genisys CU sponsored the Crittenton Foundation’s 5K Fun Run/Walk, which was part of the 34th Annual Golf, Tennis, & Fun, a multi-day event in Rochester. This was the first year for the 5K, which started and finished at Crittenton Hospital Medical Center, spanned two different cities and included the Paint Creek Trail and the Tienken Road Hill, which are also part of the Brooksie Way Marathon. With more than 300 attendees, the event was a success and included toddlers, pets, families, experienced runners and seniors. Cheerleading squads from Stoney Creek, Rochester and Rochester Adams high schools were present to cheer on runners as they started the race. Prizes were awarded to the top three finishers in each division. Winners in each age group were awarded custom steel water bottles. “Genisys is happy to support the Crittenton Foundation and their commitment to improving the health and wellness of those in the community,” Genisys President/CEO Jackie Buchanan said. Proceeds from the race support the hospital’s new 165,000-square-foot patient tower, scheduled to open in 2014. “We are so grateful for our title race sponsor, Genisys Credit Union, for supporting Crittenton,” said Crittenton Foundation President Melinda Conaway Callahan. “Their generosity saves lives and makes a difference for our patients. Together we are promoting healthy lifestyles and making a difference by supporting the health and wellness of those in our community.”
