What's All the Pink About?

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It’s more than wearing pink, its helping others learn about this disease and how to overcome the challenging diagnosis. Why not spend some time reading and researching the symptoms, cure and cause of breast cancer? This disease effects the old as well as the young (male and female). The library has eBooks, magazines, as well as traditional books that can be used to find out more about CANCER. In October, let's PINK OUT at Benedict (Dress in PINK as often as possible).
