Men born in 1972 are being encouraged to get a PSA blood test done Monday to help weed-out prostate cancer.

But instead of just giving blood, men who turn 40 this year will be getting something in return.

The Prostate Cancer Centre’s “Man Van” will be parked outside the Big Rock Brewery from 3:30 – 6:30 p.m.

The first 100 participants will get a beer, a sandwich and a bacon donut for free.

Men are encouraged to have their first PSA test done at the age of 40, then again at 45, 50, and every year after the age of 50.
