Think Pink: Via Lago Hosting Breast Cancer Awareness Event Oct. 25

The EvergreenHealth Mammography Coach will be at the downtown Kirkland shop for a Girls' Night Out event celebrating Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Via Lago, downtown Kirkland’s popular women’s apparel and accessories shop, will be turning pink on Oct. 25 for a Girls’ Night Out event celebrating Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The EvergreenHealth Mammography Coach will be parked out front of the shop at 129 Lake Street South (scholarships are available) and pink cookies and pink drinks will be served. Participants can shop for new fall clothes, with part of the proceeds benefiting the fight against breast cancer, in a supportive social atmosphere.

The event is from 5-9 p.m. and is co-sponsored by Via Lago and EvergreenHealth Medcal Center, which on Nov. 5 will open its new Breast Cancer Center.

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

I'll be a bit more direct than Jerry. The new site is a mess. Visually it's extremely cluttered.Read More It's slow, very slow. There appear to be no RSS feeds, a major negative. Following a few links sometimes sends you to a different community's Patch site. And what happened with the editing staff. Unless I missed something, suddenly there are new editors without any warning. No matter what the circumstances, normally such a move would be accompanied by an announcement of some sort. Venice may be the greatest editor ever, but it looks like she is splitting her time among several Patch sites, so the odds are stacked against her. Her "latest activities" list even suggests that she is editing a Patch site down in the San Francisco Bay area. With all due respect, Patch sites should be hyper-local, and the best route to that is a local (i.e. Mercer Islander) editor.

The Jury is still out. I liked the "Old Patch". J
