| The 2012 Walk for Health is a 4-mile annual Walk which raises charitable contributions for Research Belton Foundation, a local-non-profit organization. The Walk includes a post event celebration complete with food, entertainment, and prizes. Funds raised will support the Foundation's Cass County Dental Clinic. In July 2011, Research Belton Foundation opened the first and only safety net dental clinic in Cass County. The Clinic is open full-time, five days per week, and serves Medicaid and low income uninsured children ages birth to 20 with preventive and urgent dental services. During its first six months of operation, the Clinic served 1,121 children through 1,881 dental visits.
