The AARP/Walgreens Wellness Tour has made its way into the Basin.
The tour bus is traveling across the U.S., and making stops along the way to offer people all over the country free health screenings. It's also a chance to educate people on how they can detect the signs of chronic disease and health problems before it's too late.
"It's really important for the community to come out and get their free health screenings because early detection is the key to prevention of all diseases, and all of our screenings act as early detection measures," says Blake Morrison, AARP/Walgreens Wellness Tour.
Those screenings include cholesterol levels, blood pressure, bone density, glucose levels and waist circumstance body mass index. That's a $140 value.
They'll be making four more stops in Midland and Odessa between now and next Tuesday. Those locations are listed below.
