Car wash supports WISE Relay team
The WISE Relay for Life team's car wash May 4 netted $345.02 to the fundraising efforts. Bloomington Car Wash owner Ralph May donated this money as a percentage of his day's income. He said there were about 40 more cars than usual, a good turnout for a cloudy Monday.
Organizers Susan Strom and Kathy Frick send along their appreciation to all who had their cars washed that day and helped the WISE team's efforts for the American Cancer Society.
SIRA appreciates your patience
The Southern Indiana Radiological Associates (SIRA) recently placed an ad in the Herald-Times thanking patients for their patience during the many months the facility was upgrading to digital mammography.
SIRA is one of 321 sites in the U.S. to hold the designation of Center for Breast Excellence, a kudo from the American College of Radiology.
