Summit Health is proud to present the 5th Annual Tour for the Heart. This annual fun 5km XC ski or snowshoe tour to raise awareness that heart disease is the #1 cause of death for women. An individual’s risk for heart disease can be lowered by over 80% by leading a healthy lifestyle — and exercise is one of the keys to lowering that risk.
The Tour for the Heart covers a beautiful Oregon Cascades route suitable for participants of all ages and abilities (and yes, men & boys of all ages are also very welcome!).
The Tour also features music, yummy treats, and more. Costumes are encouraged, with prizes for the most creative ensembles. Participate alone or recruit your friends, coworkers and family to sign up for the Group Challenge to enjoy for a great day on the snow and qualify for an extra special drawing.

Join Summit Health Cardiology for a free screening of the film The Widowmaker.
According to the CDC, an estimated 610,000 people die annually of heart disease (that’s 1 in 4 deaths) and an estimated 735,000 Americans die every year of a heart attack. Heart disease is the #1 killer in both men and women in this country.
Patrick Forbes’ new documentary, The Widowmaker uncovers a conspiracy of silence around the most vulnerable of human organs – the heart. Every minute of every year an American drops dead of a heart attack, a huge number without any warning or prior symptoms. The film tells the story of the often contentious development of both preventative and interventional cardiology and explores various technologies to prevent and stop heart attacks.
The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with Summit Health Cardiologists Rick Koch MD, FACC, Ian Riddock, MD and Nahel Farraj DO, FACC, FSCAI as well as one of the film’s principals, Bruce Brundage MD, MACC.
Whole Foods will be providing complementary healthy snacks.
