Breast Cancer Awareness Month Promoted by Eureka Firefighters

Area residents may see local firefighters—and others—wearing pink this month. Want to buy a special shirt to help the cause?

Eureka Fire Protection District employees are promoting Breast Cancer Awareness Month throughout October by selling special-designed pink T-shirts for $20 each.

Shirt proceeds are being donated to the St. John's Mercy Show Me Healthy Women Program and Susan G. Komen Foundation.

Call (636) 938-5505 to inquire about the pink shirts. Eureka district inspector Sheila Frost said they have a variety of sizes to offer. "All you need to do is come in, pay and get your shirt."
