Our Annual Seymour Pink Pasta Dinner was scheduled for tonight…it is a very special night when we recognize and honor our many loved ones who have heard the breast cancer diagnosis. Special raffles donated in honor and memory of those who have fought the FIGHT are raffled off with a little story about each loved one!
Seymour Pink has its roots in this fundraiser! It is ALWAYS a sell out evening hosted by Sara and Gary Morgatto of Brookside Inn.
Unfortunately, because of the pandemic, this is yet another one of our fundraisers that has had to be put on the “back burner” for a while.
However, there is one event that takes place this night that we CAN celebrate tonight.
Each year we ask students to submit artwork for the Annual Seymour Pink T-shirt contest. The winner of the T-shirt contest along with his/her design is revealed this night and is given a $500 scholarship. The design is printed on over 2000 tee shirts!
So, although we cannot hold our pasta dinner and cannot celebrate our breast cancer warriors, we can reveal, tonight, the new design and the winner of this contest.
Congratulations goes to Olivia Kick!
When Olivia submitted her design she shared the meaning of her design.
She gives credit to her grandmother! Her grandmother was a nurse. Her grandmother always said to her, “HOPE is the big idea and if you don’t have hope, you don’t have anything“. She said the ribbon with people walking toward it reminded her of HOPE, the hope her grandmother spoke of!
Congratulations Olivia your message is a powerful message and so apropos with all we are experiencing in our lives right now.
“Once you choose HOPE, anything is possible”
In order to maintain social distancing, this year we will be shipping our shirts.
More to follow on details.
The price will remain the same as it has for the last 13 years $10 for short sleeve $20 for long sleeve. (However, there will be a shipping charge.)
Congratulations Olivia! Well Done!
