School in Ansonia gets into the pink

Emmett O'Brien Tech marks breast cancer awareness month

Students and staff wearing EOB Goes Pink Day T-shirts pose in front of the school Friday.
Principal Laurie LeBouthillier went on the roof to take a photo of them standing in the shape of a breast cancer awareness ribbon.
I stayed on the ground to capture this "sea of pink."

The school collected $1,450 for The Hewitt Center for Breast Wellness at Griffin Hospital in Derby. 


The gym was alive with spirit during Friday's volleyball tournament.
The cheerleaders created a special 'fight breast cancer' cheer.

O'Brien students and staff deserve plaudits for their efforts to support Griffin's breast wellness center and for raising awareness of the disease.
