Hosted at the Gross Memorial Coliseum in Hays, athletes will meet with trained health professionals who will conduct hearing screenings, identify potential concerns, and provide guidance on hearing health and follow-up care if needed. Healthy Hearing helps detect hearing issues early so athletes can stay connected, communicate effectively, and fully participate in sports and daily life.
The screening will take place on March 21 from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. alongside the excitement of the State Basketball Tournament.
Volunteers are also needed to assist with event setup and support throughout the day, including helping with tables, chairs, and maintaining the screening space.
Help support athlete health and make a difference by volunteering or stopping by to learn more about the Healthy Athletes program!
