We have some fun and exciting things planned for Glenwood! We are hoping that each business on the Square and several around town will join us in doing a “Pink Out Window Display”! Displays should be done as soon as possible in order to collect the most votes! Voting will take place October 9th-16th. The top three winners will be announced after reading the proclamation on the 19th of October at 6:00pm. To vote for your favorite, vote online on the “Glenwood Area Chamber of Commerce” Facebook page. There will be prizes for the top three!
What we ask of each location:
If you are interested in participating please contact Tana at the Chamber to REGISTER your Window Display at: tana@glenwoodia.com

Have your window display completed by October 16th or sooner!
Keep your window display up through the October 19th Activities

We are excited to share we have a lot going on the month of October to promote the Breast Health Center through our efforts with Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Methodist Jennie Edmundson Breast Health Center is the only Nationally Accredited Breast Health Center in Southwest Iowa. Thanks to the support of Mayor Tackett, who has proclaimed October 19th as Methodist Jennie Edmundson Breast Health Center Day we will launch a City-Wide Pink Out effort to help promote the importance of early detection and yearly screenings.
