The POWER of PINK

What do you get when you have a gathering of over 200 women (and a few men)...









Over 100 auction items...











Heartfelt speeches of love, support, encourgement, and stories of survival...




Delicious food...sandwiches and potato salad generously donated by Geno and Diane Elias from Tony's Restaurant...


Ice Cream donated by Bert and Rocky's in Claremont...pink of course!


Scarves...over 900 of them knitted and crocheted with love...mostly by members in our community... to be given to women in treatment for breast cancer at several local hospitals...however, we received scarves from as far away as Connecticut, Iowa and Arizona!


The Power of Pink Party!...our 6th annual event that celebrates survival, educates, and raises funds for the immediate needs of breast cancer patients at Pomona Valley Community Hospital.



These girls were nominated for wearing the most pink...


Thank You...to all of you who participated in this truly wonderful event. This year YOU raised over $2,500.00 that will be given to the Breast Care Fund at Pomona Valley Community Hospital. Our best year to date! Kudos to Michele Daly and of course Joan Bunte...whose jester hat should really be a crown...Thanks for making this wonderful day possible...


Thanks for stopping by today...
