JRMC\u2019s #GROWvember \u2018Stache Bash is set for Tues., Jan. 31, 2017, at Jonny B\u2019s Brickhouse on First Avenue South in Jamestown. At the event, JRMC will announce awards from the #GROWvember contest.<\/p>\n
A dozen teams grew out their facial hair as part of the month-long #GROWvember event. #GROWvember raised awareness to men\u2019s health below the belt and raised money to benefit JRMC\u2019s upcoming cancer center.<\/p>\n
Men\u2019s health issues and their treatments vary. But raising awareness to issues in the bathroom, bedroom and overall manliness are key to improving community health.<\/p>\n
Urologist Dr. Robert Bates says,\u201cMen\u2019s health can be a tough subject, but it shouldn\u2019t be. \u201cKnowledge is your best weapon for early detection.\u201d<\/p>\n
The public should know that they don\u2019t have to travel for care related to bladder and bedroom issues, he said. And patients can self-refer too, he said, which reduces the amount of times someone has to share an embarrassing experience.<\/p>\n
JRMC clinic manager Annette Hazelton says, \u201c#GROWvember helped us get the word out about men\u2019s health and early detection<\/p>\n
In addition to raising awareness of men\u2019s health issues, #GROWvember also helped raise money. Teams raised more than $3,500 for JRMC\u2019s upcoming cancer center.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe thank everyone for their \u2018stache-tastic help. Because of our teams, more than 10,000 people now know the importance of making men\u2019s health a priority,\u201d said JRMC Foundation Director Lisa Jackson. \u201cPlus, we got to help the community build its cancer treatment center too.\u201d<\/p>\n
The #GROWvember \u2018Stache Bash is free and open to the public. Appetizers are provided. Meals and beverages are available for purchase.<\/p>\n
