A fundraiser for a new piece of cancer fighting equipment is being held tomorrow (Sat. 5-9pm) at Drifters Bar and Grill in Fort Pierre.
Avera St. Mary’s Foundation director Kellie Yackley says proceeds from “Uncork the Cure” will go towards purchasing a Savi Scout for the Helmsley Center in Pierre.
Yackley says the Savi Scout provides a precise location and guide to remove a tumor during a lumpectomy or biopsy procedure, providing a less painful & more efficient procedure for the patient.
VIP tickets are $100. General admission tickets are $60.
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
