Mayor Jim Arrington is partnering with Wellstar West Georgia Medical Center to launch the Spring edition of the Mayor’s Health Initiative.
This is a community-wide health initiative designed to get residents moving, connected, and healthier. Mayor Arrington hosted his initial Mayor’s Health Initiative in Fall 2025. The initiative will run throughout February, March, April, and May, offering free opportunities for people of all ages to get active, try something new, and have fun while getting healthy alongside Mayor Arrington.

“The success of our fall events proved that LaGrange is ready to move, connect with others, and take charge of our health,” said Mayor Arrington. “I’m excited to invite all our community to join us this spring for more free activities that make fitness fun and welcoming for everyone. We want to thank our community partners and especially Wellstar West Georgia Medical Center for standing with us again to support the health and well-being of our city.”
“At Wellstar West Georgia Medical Center, our mission is to enhance the health and well-being of every person we serve,” said Wellstar West Georgia President Coleman Foss. “The success of the fall initiative showed just how much our community values opportunities to be active together. We’re excited to continue our partnership this spring, helping create more free, welcoming events that encourage families to move more, connect, and make healthy living part of everyday life in LaGrange.”
