Congratulations to our local Utah Radon Poster Contest winners!

We’re excited to recognize talented students from Minersville School in Beaver County and Pine View Intermediate School in Washington County for their outstanding artwork!

These students used their creativity to raise awareness about radon, an invisible, odorless gas that is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States.

🏆 Their winning posters are advancing to the state competition, hosted by the Utah Department of Environmental Quality!

State voting begins October 19, with winners announced November 9. We’re cheering on our local students as they move on to the next round!

Thank you to everyone who participated and helped share this important message: The only way to know your home’s radon level is to test.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 🎗️

A lump isn’t the only possible sign of breast cancer. Changes such as redness or irritation of the breast skin, ni**le discharge, or breast pain are also worth discussing with a healthcare provider.

Take a moment this month to learn what changes to watch for. If you notice something new or unusual for you, don’t wait for your next screening to ask about it.
