Several Teague ladies were treated to a day in Waco last week that included free mammograms, courtesy of Texas Breast Cancer Awareness and the EOAC community service center.

The ladies left Teague in a van provided by Pleasant Hill Missionary Baptist Church, and were met in Bellmead by a limousine.

First stop was the Hillcrest Breast Center in Waco, where each woman was screened.

After tests, the ladies were taken, again by limousine, to lunch at Sironia Austin Avenue, and then escorted back to the van in Bellmead. Each guest also received shirts, bracelets, pins and other gifts.

"It was a day of being treated like loyalty," one of the attendees remarked.

Next screening trip is set Aug. 27. Criteria for selection is: not insured, underinsured, at risk of breast cancer, or 40 years of age and have not had a mammogram.

Ladies who meet the criteria and would like to attend should call case manager Mary Daniels at 254-739-5355 or Doris Nealy at 254-739-2167.
