Mama Liz's Blog: Denim & Pink Day

Denim & Pink Day

This blog presented by AgentOwned Realty for the Charleston, Sumter, Manning and Santee, SC markets ---- visit http://agentownedrealty.com

As October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Johnnie Dodds is having a "Denim & Pink" Day
-- each person will wear jeans (or denim of any kind) with a pink shirt or at least something pink -- In order to dress this way, you will make a contribution to Breast Cancer Research --- $1, $5, $10, $20, etc --- whatever you feel you can do. I would like to ask the other offices to do the same. Johnnie Dodds has chosen Wed., Oct. 22, 2008 for its Denim & Pink Day.


Did you hear about the Pink Ribbon Tour 2008? I had read about it in the paper -- These firefighters pulled a breast cancer awareness ribbon statue on a trailer headed across the country touring --- the trailer was pulled by a pink firetruck. Mike Terry of the Johnnie Doddds office was a sponsor in the Charleston area. As a matter of fact, Mike Terry wrote an article for the Full Throttle magazine about it. Thanks, Mike.

Here is a quote from Dave Grabill who organized the "Guardians of the Ribbon" tour: "I believe that we are only limited if we choose not to see the beauty of life and what it means to be here on this planet. It is a short time; we need to touch as many lives as possible, so that when it is over, we will have touched lives of people that we have never met."

What a great quote ---------

Hi Liz,

Thanks so much for blogging us, it's great people like you who spread the word.  Dave and the Crew are on the last leg of their tour.  We will be throwing him a homecoming party on the 26th of October here in Scottsdale Arizona.

If anyone would like to sign up for our newsletters and the 09 tour, please go to www.pinkribbontour.com  and sign up on the help out tab.  Dave has done what he had set out to do and thats bring a male dominated profession, i.e. fire and police to a female dominated disease.  Now approx 100 fire depts across the usa so far have gone pink for 3 days in Oct.  the 25th, 26th and 27th!   Let's rally even more in 09!

Thanks for all the support,

Lisa@pinkribbontour.com
