Samuels Tennisport, Queen City Racquet Club Professionals
Raise Awareness & Funds for Melanoma Know More
May is National Melanoma Awareness Month
CINCINNATI, OH. May is Melanoma Awareness Month. The onset of Spring and Summer brings outdoor activities, sports, sun, exposed and unprotected skin and a general lack of knowledge about melanoma and the dangers of UV rays particularly to young athletes.
In recognition of Melanoma Awareness Month, local tennis professionals and Babolat representatives John Van Lokeren and Chris Hemingway of Queen City Racquet Club have partnered with Samuels Tennisport in Kenwood to raise awareness and funds for Melanoma Know More. Samuels will make a donation to the organization for the purchase of the following Babolat items: $10 Babolat racquet; $7 Babolat pair of shoes and $5 for a Babolat bag. Buyers simply need to mention the Melanoma Know More promotion to Samuels’ representatives who will then document each purchase and donation. Samuels’ Tennisport, (513) 791-4636, is located at 7796 Montgomery Road in Kenwood.
