Think Pink Event
Posted on: 10/10/2008
KCIC is joining Providence Medical Center and Saint John Hospital, along with the American Cancer Society and Cancer Action for a woman-focused event on Saturday, Oct. 4, from 8 to 11:30 a.m. The event, which was held last year, will again be hosted at the Legends 14 Theatres at Village West in western Wyandotte County.
The event will feature a continental breakfast, fashion show, a purse auction, an array of exhibitors, gourmet cooking demonstrations, a style consultant and an informative presentation by Scott Ellison, M.D., a board-certified surgeon, who practices at Providence. KCTV-5 meteorologist Katie Horner will emcee the event.
“We encourage women to bring their girlfriends, mothers, sisters and daughters for a morning filled with fun, inspiration and most importantly, lifesaving facts about breast health,” said co-chair Catherine Rice, Senior Association of Communications for Providence and Saint John. “Proceeds from the event will be earmarked for the development of a new state-of-the-art Breast Center at Providence slated to open in mid October.
Think Pink! is open to all women, but advanced registration (by Sept. 19) is requested. The cost is $20. For information or to register, call 913-281-7777 or 800-281-7777 or click on www.providence-health.org/Foundation.
