There's still time to sign up for the Colorthon 5K happening near Lompoc later this month.
The event is a fundraiser for the Lompoc Hospital District Foundation.
Pre-registration is available through Oct. 24 for the Colorthon taking place Oct. 28 at 9 a.m. at The Mission Club. Pre-registration includes a $5 discount, T-shirt and bag.
Money raised helps the foundation purchase near equipment and materials for the Rehabilitation Services Department, which serves Lompoc Valley Medical Center and its other facilities.
"I like to think that we're making a big difference. Our main thrust, our mission is to raise money for the hospital. And we've done that. We've raised millions of dollars for the hospital. We provide lectures, health related lectures, and we do that each month. And basically, we're an arm to provide support for our hospital," said Alice Milligan, president of the Lompoc Hospital Foundation.
