TACKLING FOR A CURE - You’ve seen it in the NFL, now Crittenden County has an all-out rush against Breast Cancer this week with a variety of activities to raise awareness of the disease that will affect one out of every six women.
RAIN DELAY - Action resumes Thursday at 5:30 p.m., in the all-women’s flag football tournament Girl Iron Glory at Rocket Stadium. Almost 100 women are participating in the tournament, which started Tuesday, but was postponed due to rain. Gate proceeds benefit breast cancer research.
WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING - In conjunction with Thursday night’s Girl Iron Glory, there will be a bag toss tournament to raise money for Jennifer McDaniel, a local woman diagnosed with breast cancer. Play starts at 5 p.m. See page 13 for details.
PINK OUT FRIDAY - The Rocket football team will be hosting a Pink Out Friday night. Survivors are encouraged to join the team’s entrance onto the field. Meet at the east end zone at 7:15 p.m. All fans are encouraged to wear pink shirts. Players will be wearing pink socks, wrist bands and other pink gear. Proceeds from the sale of shirts go to fight breast cancer.
