October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
A Community That Cares. Sponsors Who Make It Possible.
Tawas Wellness is so much more than fitness classes at The Collective. It's a community of friends and neighbors encouraging one another to keep moving, growing stronger, and thriving—both physically and mentally.
It's about finding joy in helping others, building friendships, and making our little spot on the map a brighter, healthier place to call home.
And none of this happens alone!
Behind every class, community meal, youth program, and special event are local businesses, generous sponsors, and dedicated volunteers who believe in what we're building together.
Today, let's shine some light on some of 2026's most impactful Warrior Supporters:
Jay's Dogs is so much more than a food truck—this family-owned business has truly become part of the Tawas Wellness family! From lending their time and talents at Board and Committee meetings to rolling up their sleeves in the kitchen, their dedication goes far beyond sponsorship. They're helping keep our daily operations running and our community connected, one act of generosity at a time.
Tawas Hardware has generously provided the resources and supplies to help us transform The Collective into a welcoming wellness center—and what many call their “third place”.
Elliot Insurance has been a dedicated supporter from the very beginning, continuing to strengthen our community through events like SafetyFest at The Collective. By bringing new faces through our doors, they're helping more people discover and experience the welcoming community they've helped us build.
MyMichigan Health generously supports our three free weekly community offerings, removing financial barriers and giving more people the opportunity to thrive!
Revord Builders took on a flooring project we never could have accomplished on our own, helping transform the Collective Lounge into a beautiful, welcoming space.
There are so many more businesses and volunteers to praise for making 2026 impactful for so many. Thank you for believing in this wellness mission and showing up for your community.
🎉 Sponsors & Volunteers: We're planning a special TW Appreciation Night just for YOU! Keep an eye out for the date announcement coming soon. 🎉
Warriors Supporting Warriors — Together Against Cancer!
At Tawas Wellness, we believe in showing up for our neighbors, especially when they need us most. This October, we're proud to support two meaningful community events raising awareness and showing love for local families affected by cancer.
💗 Pink Power Walk | Wednesday, October 21
Join us at the High School Track as we walk together in support of local families affected by cancer!
We're helping sell luminaries, and we'd love your participation! Simply stop by The Collective to pick up a luminary, decorate it in honor or memory of someone special, and bring it to the track. Can't make the walk? Leave your decorated luminary with us, and we'll make sure it gets there!
And we'd LOVE to see the track filled with Warrior T-shirts making laps for this important cause! All proceeds will support local families affected by cancer.
🎭 Camp-O-Che-Mo | This Weekend at Tawas Bay Players
We're also proud to support our very own Warrior and breast cancer survivor, Carol Kushion, and her play, Camp-O-Che-Mo, showing this weekend at Tawas Bay Players!
All weekend long, Tawas Wellness volunteers will be hosting the intermission receptions, and we encourage you to come out and enjoy the production in support of this meaningful cause.
Whether you're walking a lap, decorating a luminary, or attending the theater, every act of support matters.
Because being a Warrior isn't just about getting stronger ourselves. It's about helping others find strength along the way. 💗
