September is Turning BLUE
September Is Turning BLUE To Raise Awareness Of Prostate Cancer
Why blue? It's simple - blue is for boys!
Every year about 600 men in New Zealand die of Prostate Cancer.
Fathers, sons, brothers, grandfathers. Gone!
This happens because men don’t know how dangerous the disease is, they don’t talk to their doctor about it, they simply don’t do anything about it.
This has to stop.
That’s why Blue September is about getting the word out about prostate cancer.
If you paint your face blue, donate money to the Prostate Cancer Foundation or even tell people, you will be directly helping to lower the death rate and reduce the suffering from this disease.
The death rate can be halved by:
• Men taking responsibility for their health
• Having regular health and prostate checks at least from age 40
• Early detection!
• Early treatment!
The exciting line up features: Fatt Max, Kings College High School Band, Mike Garner Trio, Hammond Gamble and The Darcy Perry Band.
The show starts at 2 pm (with doors open from 1.30 pm).
Tickets are $20 on the door.
Blue September spokesman, Darcy Perry is also hosting a Blue September Showdown dinner and show on Saturday 11th September at the Villagrad Winery in Hamilton.
So enjoy an awesome line-up featuring Darcy himself with The Gunsmiths, The Flaming Mudcats and a host of other fine musicians combined with the finest of dining experiences at Villagrad Winery while supporting an extremely worthwhile cause.
Bookings are essential and can be made online at: www.iticket.co.nz
