Go Red for Women on

National Wear Red Day

Let’s paint Clinton County Red on Friday, February 3

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 wants to paint Clinton County Red on Friday, February 3rd.

We want to see you in RED! Encourage all your coworkers, family members, and friends to Wear Red on February 3rd to fight heart disease. Share a photo of you, your business/office/team, group of friends, etc. wearing red on the Clinton County Cooperative Extension Facebook page by 5:00 p.m. on February 3rd. Get creative and help us promote awareness of heart disease and stroke. The photo with the most “likes” by 8:00 a.m. on Monday, February 6th will receive a special health incentive from the Extension Office.
