DHS Volleyball Team to Dig Pink

Join the championship-winning Darien High School girls volleyball team in the Main Gym of DHS on Friday, October 29th as they participate in Dig Pink. DHS, along with hundreds of high school and college teams from around the country will be taking part in the Dig Pink National Breast Cancer Awareness Rally promoting breast health education in the community and raising funds to help eradicate breast cancer. The Blue Wave girls will be battling the Fairfield Ludlowe Falcons in the last regularly scheduled game of the season. Freshman will take the court at 4 p.m., followed by JV at 6 p.m. and Varsity at 7 p.m. Dig Pink attendees are asked to wear something pink in support of breast health awareness. Admission will be $5.00 and cancer survivors are admitted free of charge.

Donations to Dig Pink are also currently being accepted online at www.side-out.org/application/teams/team_page/685  and then click the Donate button. This is the DHS girls' third year participating in Dig Pink. They are hoping to reach their goal of $5,000.

The proceeds from all Dig Pink donations and ticket sales will benefit the Side-Out Foundation. The Side-Out Foundation (Side-Out) was established in 2004 by a group of individuals drawn together by their love of volleyball along with their passion to be a part of the war against breast cancer. Side-Out's mission is to raise money for the war against breast cancer and to provide education and awareness about this disease through the recreational activity of volleyball.
