Planet Head Day Feb. 14

10 years ago

    The University of Maine at Presque Isle will host the ninth annual Planet Head Day on Saturday, Feb. 14, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Wieden Gymnasium. Planet Head Day is the major fund-raising event for C-A-N-C-E-R (Caring Area Neighbors for Cancer Education and Recovery), an Aroostook County-based organization that assists cancer patients and their families. 
    Enjoy an afternoon of food, fun, and science and cancer education — there will be an assortment of space and cancer-based displays and programs at the event — and, best of all, have your head painted as the celestial body of your choice. You can either get your head shaved or “bald” caps will be available for a less permanent option for participants. 
    This event is free and the public is invited to attend. FMI, call Kevin McCartney at 768-9482, Jeanie McGowan at 768-9747 or Louise Calabrese at 764-0766.
