News: Dominion Grad Sara Hurwitch Signs on With Sun Safetee to Tout Sun Protection on the Golf Course

(Sept. 18, 2012) - Symetra Tour player and Dominion High School graduate Sara Hurwitch has teamed up with the Entertainment Industries Council, Inc. (EIC) and its Sun SafeTee Program to reach out to golfers and educate them on the importance of sun protection and skin cancer prevention.

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, according to the National Institutes of Health. One of the key risk factors is abundant, prolonged exposure, especially if that exposure occurs without proper use of sunscreen, wide-brimmed hats, sunglasses and other forms of sun protection.

“As someone who is on a golf course almost every day, I know that many golfers do not use good sun protection techniques. I am looking forward to working with the Sun SafeTee Program to help get the word out to golfers not only on the importance of using good sun protection but also how to do it,” said Sara Hurwitch who is completing her third year on the Symetra Tour.
