Go Red Events

From the Harrison County Community Education Center:

GO RED FOR WOMEN 2008

February marks the “Go Red for Women” movement. Four years ago Cynthiana began their own campaign, the Harrison County “Go Red for Women”.  This year our committee would like to add a bit more red and make the entire town a part of our heart disease awareness campaign through “Paint the Town Red”.  This event will be an exciting one.  Beginning February 1, we are asking all businesses to adorn their windows in red in honor of heart disease awareness and in support of your local “Go Red” Committee and our many survivors. We all know that heart disease is just not a man’s disease; it’s the number one killer of women nationwide AND in Harrison County.

Please keep the following dates in mind as we Paint Cynthiana Red in February!!

January 28, the annual “Go Red” picture featuring the HC Realtors Association is scheduled to appear in the Cynthiana Democrat

February 1, National Wear Red Day & Paint the Town Red

February 1, Go Red Harrison County Schools & Go Red Harrison County

February 3, Wear Red to Church Day

February 19, Go Red for Women Celebration, Cynthiana Christian Church, 5:00pm to 6:30pm. Guest speaker, Dr. Nezar Falluji, HMH Cardiologist.

Remember, heart disease doesn’t care what you wear, it’s the #1 killer of women and by displaying RED the month of February and wearing red on February 1, it’s a simple, powerful way to raise awareness of heart disease and stroke.

Please email or mail pictures of your business, organization, family, church, etc… all celebrating “Go Red” so we may include them in the celebration education on February 19.  For more information, please feel free to contact me by phone or email.
