Atrium Health Floyd held its annual Pink Day celebration on Friday, which was National Mammography Day, to stress the
importance of getting an annual mammogram.

Truett’s Chick-fil-A in Rome was humming with visitors before sunrise Friday morning.

Visitors received complimentary Paper Doll magnets and information about breast health.

Carmen Jones, retired Pepperell Primary School principal, was there before sunrise along with many current teachers and other staff members from the school, which is usually well-represented each year.

“Breast cancer has impacted so many members of the Pepperell community,” Jones said. “Awareness is so important,
and the Breast Center at Atrium Health Floyd is such an important resource for our community.”
