Walk to Bethlehem surpasses goal

Congregants of Ocean View United Methodist Church, Oak Island, walked more than 7,600 miles in December. That's 1,400 miles farther than the goal set in the fall, which represented the distance from Oak Island to Bethlehem, Israel. One hundred members of the church participated in the first project by Brunswick Wellness Coalition, of which Dosher is a founding member.

The Coalition's second project-Spring Into Health, a 5K run/1-mile walk-is set for Saturday, March 24, 9:30 a.m. This will run from Dosher Memorial Hospital through Southport.
