How do you wear your pink?

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it's great to see organizations far and wide raising awareness for breast cancer.  From the NFL to The North Face, people are celebrating survivors and fighting for fighters by wearing pink!

We, at Eagle Eye, are perfectly pink, too! Our most recent store display is a tribute to the women in our lives that have been affected by the disease.  We also hope to raise awareness and encourage women of the Wiregrass to self-test, screen early and stay active.



Several of our vendor partners are also championing the cause of breast cancer awareness by creating fabulous apparel lines for promoting pink.  Some of the proceeds for these lines are set aside for donation to organizations that search for cures and support women in the battle.

The North Face is active in raising support for breast cancer awareness and research.  This year, their pink ribbon line will benefit Boarding for Breast Cancer, an organization that raises awareness to young people about early detection.  Columbia Sportswear is also dedicated to raising funds for prevention programs through the National Breast Cancer Foundation with its Tested Tough in Pink line.  Here are some of The North Face & Columbia items we have in stock:

 



We also have some great pink ribbon jewelry arriving just in time to put in our booth that we'll have set up at SAMC Foundation's Champions of Hope 5K.  Join us this Friday 10/19 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturday 10/20 starting at 6:00 a.m. for the event! We'll have our booth set up with some of these great items from our vendors.  You can register at the event if you would like to participate in the race.

We hope to see you there!
