Show Us Your Pink Pride in Tarpon Springs

Showing off your pink pride during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a favorite thing to do with survivors and supporters alike.

Thousands of hats, shirts, and other pink breast cancer items are sold in October. Millions of tiny pink ribbons are worn to support the cure for breast cancer and hope for many women.

Also, countless numbers of people show support of Breast Cancer Awareness by participating in fundraising events. Have you strapped on your pink running shoes for the Komen Race for the Cure? If a walk is more your speed, how about the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure? Have you joined a local support group? Joined efforts with other supporters to hold a fundraiser or night out? 

In Tarpon Springs, the Boot Hide Out has an ongoing contest in light of the cause for the entire month of October. 

Tarpon Dental is hosting a Facebook check-in contest that has kept one of their employees dressed in pink scrubs from the first day of the month!

Another local business showing their support is by decorating a bra and putting it on display at the salon.

We want you to tell us your story in the comments below. How do you participate and show your pink pride in the community?
