Are you wondering what to wear to lunch bunch tomorrow? How about something RED?

Tomorrow is National Wear Red Day.

Studies show that heart disease is the number one killer of women in the U.S. Many women don’t make the connection between risk factors, like high blood pressure & high cholesterol, & their personal risk of getting heart disease. Raise awareness of this life-threatening disease & promote National Wear Red Day® on Feb 1st. Urge your friends to support The Heart Truth’s life-saving awareness campaign. For information, including promotional resources, visit  http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/educational/hearttruth/index.htm.

Hope to see you tomorrow!

Check the calendar for additional information on our February meeting on  Saturday, February 23.
