In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Fort Hamilton Hospital is hosting Pink Around The Square on Friday, October 5 from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Courthouse Square, 101 High Street in Hamilton.

Visitors can enjoy refreshments from Chick-fil-A, Richards Pizza, Almond Sisters Bakery and Pepsi, as well as pink vanilla ice cream from Flub’s.

Gift bags will be handed out while supplies last and you can enter for a chance to win prizes.

In addition to a health fair, physicians will provide breast health information and answer questions. Women will be able to schedule a mammogram at the event.

The City of Hamilton has declared October 5 as Hamilton Breast Cancer Awareness Day. At noon, Mayor Pat Moeller will present a proclamation to representatives of Fort Hamilton Hospital at the event.

Fort Hamilton Hospital offers the latest advancement in 3D Mammography technology at its Kettering Health Network Breast Evaluation Center. 3D Mammography with Tomosynthesis provides extremely precise imagery, presenting a much clearer, higher resolution picture of the breast structure to the radiologist.

Kettering Breast Evaluation Centers are reminding women to take time and schedule their mammogram at 1-800-373-2160 and take the “I WILL” challenge—and encourage women you care about to do the same. Early detection saves lives. Visit ketteringhealth.org/breasthealth to learn more.
