July means fireworks, of course! Look for city celebrations across the metro area as well as the annual Thunder on the Mountain featuring our fave, Vulcan. This July also means The World Games 2022 are in town from July 7 to 17, and you’ll find sports taking place all around town, from Sloss Furnace to Avondale Park to the Hoover Met. Get ready for these Birmingham events in July…
The All of Us Research Program is seeking one million or more people from across the U.S. By doing so, it hopes to one day help speed up medical research. People who join will share information about their health, habits, and what it’s like where they live. By looking for patterns, researchers may learn more about what affects people’s health.
Attendees of The World Games 2022 can participate in the All of Us Research Program at their activation space, located at City Walk BHAM each day from 3PM to 9PM.
