RED, SET, GO! HEART LUNCH

The second annual Red, Set, Go! Heart Lunch, hosted by the Olympic Medical Center Foundation, will be held on Friday, February 27, 2009 at Sunland Golf and Country Club. The purpose of this entertaining luncheon is to inspire women to become educated to improve their heart health. The Foundation has committed to a three-year campaign to raise the awareness of the critical issue of heart health for women on the Olympic Peninsula.

Last year’s event focused on Red, signifying that heart disease is the #1 killer of American women, and kills more women under the age of 45 than any other single disease. At this year’s event, we will focus on “Set”ting the scene to help attendees know their vital numbers: cholesterol, blood pressure, healthy body weight, etc. The key to eradicating this disease is education, and women who understand the risks of heart disease and know the steps to reduce them are better equipped to avert this serious and largely preventable threat to their health.

Noted cardiologist Dr. Peter Albro will be our Keynote Speaker at the luncheon. Dr. Albro has been a heart care partner of Olympic Medical Center and has worked closely with our Cardiac Services patients for over 20 years.

In addition to our brilliant speakers, we will again be dining on a fabulous heart-healthy lunch, to be prepared by Chef Doug Seaver , owner of Cedar Creek Cuisine in Sequim.
