We Need A Little Christmas (in October)
Maybe you’re one of those people who thinks Christmas trees and talk of the holidays should wait until November. But what if we told you that, right now, we’re jingling bells and using the wise voice of Mrs. Clause to remind people not to wait to get their cancer screenings? You might have already heard our festive reminders on Hank’s favorite radio station: 97.1 HANK FM. If not, you can hear one of them here. It kind of makes it OK to jingle in October, don’t you think?
