Go Red for Women

Let’s paint Clinton County Red on Friday, February 6

Did you know that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, killing more than all forms of cancer combined? Many of these deaths can be prevented, but most women don’t notice the symptoms until it’s too late. That’s why it’s been called the silent killer. Clinton County FCS Extension and Homemakers want to paint Clinton County Red on Friday, February 6th.

We want to see you in RED! Encourage all your coworkers, family members, and friends to Wear Red on February 6th to fight heart disease. Email, post a picture to the Clinton County Cooperative Extension Service Facebook page, or let us know and we will snap a picture for you!

Join us for “Fridays in February” on February 6th at 11:30 a.m. at the Clinton County Extension Office. Bring your lunch and learn with us! Plate It Up Kentucky Proud recipes will also be available for free sampling. Learn about risk factors, healthy eating behaviors, and other healthy heart tips. Resources and free goody bags for all participants! Be sure to wear red!
