SUGARCREEK TOWNSHIP — In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Premier Health Miami Valley Hospital South will hold Brake for Breakfast 6-10 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 19, 2400 Miami Valley Drive, Centerville.

During the morning commute, motorists can drive through and pick up a free breakfast and helpful breast health information, while supplies last. According to the American Cancer Society, over 40,000 women die annually from breast cancer. A woman’s chances for survival are good if detected early.

The goal of Brake for Breakfast is to encourage more women 40 and older to get an annual mammogram and tell their mothers, sisters and daughters to do the same. This event is a fun way to show women that taking care of their health should be part of their daily routine. Commuters don’t have to leave their cars to participate.

In addition to receiving a free bagged breakfast, motorists will also have the opportunity to register to win prizes. Plus, the MIX107.7 Morning Show will be on hand to greet motorists and provide helpful information about breast cancer awareness to their many listeners.
