A Field Of Pink

About 75 people created a field of pink in Hanover Township
Thousands of pink flags were planted by cancer survivors and family members along a vacant field on Hanoverville Road, to raise breast cancer awareness, along with some money. Each flag is inscribed in honor of a breast cancer sufferer. Hanover Township Community Center's Leah Walia and Cathy Heimsoth, along with TeamX, helped organize the event. Over $3,600 was raised for the Lehigh Valley Health Network.

The flags will stay in place throughout October.

Each flag is inscribed with the name of someone who won or lost the battle against cancer.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
