Colon-Shaped Inflatable Tunnel Helps Save Lives
Southeastern Med Wins Best of Show with Colon-Shaped Inflatable Tunnel
Even though colon cancer is serious business, Southeastern Med discovered that many people are more open to education about this disease when presented in a less-scary manner. That's what brought about their commissioning Landmark Creations to develop a cold-air, colon-shaped inflatable tunnel.
The colon has been used at home shows, open houses, employee health fairs and other public events. Walking through the colon, attendees can get a close-up (yet animated) look at healthy colon tissue, nonmalignant diseases, polyps and the stages of colorectal cancer in a nonthreatening way.
“Our goal is to increase screenings and colonoscopies. We talked with over 500 people at a recent Home & Garden Show and won ‘Best of Show,’” recalls Becky Wheeler, Cancer Registry Manager and Co-Chair of the Tina Kiser Colorectal Cancer Coalition for Southeastern Med.
The more people educated about the preventability of this disease, the more lives can be saved. Thanks to Southeastern Med for their efforts in battling colon cancer. We're proud to have partnered with you!

-The IAMS Company
"We received our inflatable and gave it a test run Saturday afternoon. To be short; Excellent Work. Thanks again for all your efforts."
- Curtis Gadula, Brock University
"After speaking to a number of vendors, Landmark Creations had the professionalism, customer service, ingenuity, and creativity that we did not find elsewhere."
- Sean Conway, Arch and Loop
"[There was] fun, excitement, and encouragement for everyone to actually walk under/through [the arch] and it worked. We have cheerleaders and small children at the finish line by the arch handing out stickers, saying ‘I did it.’ Before we had the arch, [people] would straggle in anywhere."
- Jackie Allen, March of Dimes
"Our tunnel was also a great addition to our pre-game tradition: the Wildcat walk. Our city shuts down three blocks of downtown, and we have hundreds of fans lining the streets with a police escort, while we walk to the stadium."
- Sam Baker, Head Football Coach at Waconia High School
