The Pink Ribbon Tour Is Coming To New Hampshire!

 

The Guardians of the Ribbon, a group of firefighters from Arizona, are touring America to promote breast cancer awareness, and they are doing it in a very passionate and colorful way. On September 21, if you are near NH Route 93, keep an eye out for a PINK-RIBBON-covered fire truck, towing a 10-foot-tall silver ribbon cruising up the highway.


That truck and its crew will be at Globe Manufacturing Company Monday, September 22 at about 8 a.m. The crew will be touring the Globe which was responsible for  their PINK firefighter turnout suits. This tour is an in-house event, but all are invited to the Pink Ribbon Tour at Wal-Mart on Loudon Road in Concord, from 4pm to 8pm. The Guardians of the Ribbon are asking everyone to sign the PINK fire truck, and share their stories.


Other sponsors include Your American Cancer Society from Bedford; the Mobile Digital Mammography van from Exeter Hospital, a new vehicle that was put into service in July 2008; the Payson Center for Cancer Care at Concord Hospital; ‘The Globe Striders’ for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer; popular local Rock Band ‘RockUs’; and much MUCH more! There are plenty of activities for the whole family! Please wear PINK, and come out to show your support for The Pink Ribbon Tour and breast cancer awareness. For more information about The Tour, please go to www.pinkribbontour.com. For a daily journal of their journey, please go to www.pinkribbonnews.blogspot.com.

 


Dave Graybill, Glendale Arizona firefighter, and the man behind the dream, asks that we join in a movement that was started almost a year ago. “We are a male-dominated profession, supporting a female-dominated disease, and it is in our nature to fight for those who have lost the ability to fight for themselves. This Tour will not only bring us together, but give those who are battling this dreadful disease an overwhelming feeling of support. We believe the ‘Cares Enough to Wear Pink’ campaign will have a positive impact in the lives of those battling breast cancer.”


The Pink Ribbon Tour group left Arizona on August 24, and has planned at least 28 stops around the country, showcasing their PINK fire truck, wearing their PINK firefighter turnout suits to help raise funds for local cancer-related agencies.


Come out to show your support for The Pink Ribbon Tour and breast cancer awareness. For more information about The Tour, please go to www.pinkribbontour.com. For a daily journal of their journey, please go to http://www.pinkribbonnews.blogspot.com.
