Friday is 'Wear Red Day' for heart awareness

Area residents are asked to wear red clothing Friday to acknowledge February as “Heart Awareness Month” and Friday as “Wear Red Day.”

In a Curry County news release it’s noted the Curry County Commission issued a proclamation about “Heart Awareness Month” and “Wear Red Day” at the January County Commission meeting.

County administrators are hoping to get as many organizations as possible involved to wear red on Friday to support the cause and those with heart conditions.

County Grant Administrator Kristian Price is asking if people would take pictures that day of themselves wearing red and send it in to the county at [email protected].

Price wrote in the news release any pictures of area people in red they hope to share to the Curry County Health Council and County Facebook pages.

Price requested any images to be submitted by 3 p.m. Friday to allow time to post them.
