Due to severe weather last week, Mary Bird Perkins – Our Lady of the Lake Cancer Center’s Fest for Life has been rescheduled for May 5 from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. at Bon Carrè Business Center, 7359 Florida Blvd.
Cardiovascular Institute of the South (CIS) is hosting a free "Wine and Wellness" event featuring vascular ultrasounds and electrocardiogram (EKG) screenings on April 24 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the CIS Baton Rouge clinic at 8401 Picardy Avenue.
