Team "Got Pink?" recruiting entrants for April 22 event

For the third consecutive year, Odessa’s Team “Got Pink?” is forming to participate in the Komen Eastern Washington Race for the Cure in Spokane on Sunday, April 22, 2012.

In 2011, Team “Got Pink?” took 94 entrants to the event, which raises funds for breast cancer research and awareness. Many of the racers made a party of it, spending the night in Spokane and attending a dinner honoring local breast cancer survivors.

Those who don’t feel able to participate in either the 1 mile or 3 mile run/walk can support the cause by participating in “Sleep In for the Cure” or “Pink in the Pew”, two events designed for those with other priorities on Sunday mornings.

Other opportunities to support the team include the second

annual Chiefs Fiesta Buffet for the Cure, which will take place at Chiefs Bar and Grill Monday, April 9, from 5 to 8 p.m. Team

“Got Pink” members will serve

as wait staff for the event. A portion of the price of the meal, as well as all tips will go toward the team’s fundraising effort.
