Paint the Town and Your House Pink
Pinkest House/Yard/Business Decorating Contest
"We love seeing all of the pink ribbons and encouraging messages and decor along our normal race route. Since we cannot be together, that doesn’t mean we cannot SEE MORE PINK. In fact, we can see even more!
"We are challenging participants to decorate their house and/or yards pink for race weekend and the kickoff of Breast Cancer Awareness month [in October].
"Businesses and storefronts can participate too! Since we are virtual, everyone can participate – even if you’re not on our traditional race route and even if you’re not in Connecticut. Help everyone SEE MORE PINK this October.
"Submit photos to us at poundingthepavementforpink@
"All entries must be submitted by 4 p.m on Saturday, Oct. 3. We will be sharing all entries on social media and will compile into a slideshow at the end of the event."
"Awards for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place houses are as follows:
$200 Visa Gift Card for 1st Place
$100 Via Gift Card for 2nd Place
$50 Visa Gift Card for 3rd Place
Time to start brainstorming!"
