Girls Become Educated on Breast Cancer

SUMMIT -- Nearly 30 Girl Scouts from throughout GSWRC's jurisdiction attended In the Pink, a Breast Cancer Awareness program held March 5 at Overlook Hospital in Summit.  The event was open to 6th grade juniors, Cadette and Senior Girl Scouts.  It was presented by the GSWRC Program Department in conjunction with the hospital.  During the workshop, the girls learned about breast health including how to perform a self-breast exam and the importance of mammograms.  Program participants also were afforded the opportunity to meet with nurses, radiologists and surgeons and took a tour of the breast imaging center at the hospital.  Below are some photos of the event.
