The town of Exeter is getting wrapped up in the The Red Scarf Project as part of World Aids Awareness Day Tuesday.
The Huron County Health Unit and the Regional HIV /AIDS Connection will bring the project to the community, thanks to donations from Spinrite Yarns.
Staff and volunteers will decorate lamp and sign posts on main street starting at 10:00 Tuesday morning. They will also hand out scarves and ribbons to residents.
Its an effort to start a conversation about the importance of education and services in the community for people with HIV/AIDS.
The red scarves are enlarged versions of the red ribbon which is the international symbol for Aids Awareness.
The Huron County HIV/AIDS network was established in 1991 to support victims and their families through education, referrals and awareness.
