In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, we will be hosting an educational event with local experts. We will have one of our favorite Nurse Practitioner’s from CHI St. Elizabeth, Mary Jane Glade, visit with you all about the impact of vitamins on women with breast cancer. Angie Asche and Dana Norris from Eleat Sports Nutrition will also be attending to speak on the effects of vitamins on women’s overall health at all ages. We will also cover the risks of breast cancer, the latest in detection technology (such as their new bilateral breast machine) and ways we can provide support for those that are or have been affected. Our neighbors have generously donated raffle items for the night as well. Tickets will be available for purchase on the night of the event and winners will be announced when the Q&A concludes. We will also be accepting free-will donations at the door. All proceeds from the evening will be donated to two local organizations on behalf of local runner, mother and friend, Amy Frankorter. Project Pink’d and Chairs to Recovery have worked with Amy from the day of her diagnosis, surgery, treatment and recovery and will continue to help her during her survivorship. The event will start with check-in at 6:15pm and the talks will start promptly at 6:30pm. Appetizers and refreshments will be provided. We hope to see you all there!
