The community is invited to learn more about breast health at Pink Pathways: Navigating Women’s Breast Health in Howard County on Saturday, Oct. 7, 10 a.m.-2 p.m., at Johns Hopkins Howard County Medical Center. A special keynote address at 12:30 p.m. will provide an overview of breast care in Howard County, as well as the importance of maintaining breast health.
Enjoy fall activities – think pumpkins and apples – while learning about breast care and tour the newly renovated and expanded Johns Hopkins Breast Center. The outdoor event will be held in the parking lot in front of the Berman Pavilion on the JHHCMC campus at 5759 Cedar Lane, Columbia, MD 21044.
The event includes representatives from a variety of cancer care organizations and local practices. Food trucks will also be on-site for participants to purchase refreshments.
The first 50 guests to register at the event will receive a free T-shirt.
