23 Sep 2013 501 LIFE segment on KARK
The October “Health and Wellness” edition of 501 LIFE will be highlighted at 6:15 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30, on KARK Channel 4.
Each month, 501 LIFE publisher and editor Sonja Keith presents information about that month’s issue. “This month, 501 LIFE is all about health – from helpful information on stroke and diabetes to profiles on individuals who inspire with how they are facing serious health issues,” Keith said.
Selected from the October edition for inclusion in the segment include:
NEIGHBORS – Recent Conway High grad Sara Stovall was supposed to be playing volleyball for Arkansas Tech this fall. Instead, her opponent is cancer.
HEALTH – “ACT FAST” is a slogan of AR SAVES – a program designed to increase awareness about strokes that can mean the difference between a debilitating condition and a positive outcome. The program encourages individuals to know the sudden signs of stroke and get to a hospital quickly if they experience them.
501 KIDS – In the new section, 501 LIFE presents information on the importance of flu shots for young people as well as some tasty options for healthy brown bag lunches.
FEATURES – 501 LIFE is proud to serve as a major sponsor for the Taste of Conway coming up Thursday, Oct. 10. This month’s edition features a list of participating restaurants and caterers.
In addition to the live KARK broadcast, the segment can be seen on the station’s website – arkansasmatters.com.
