meet,
to
support
the
efforts
of
the
Pink
SOCS
Foundation,
which
will
bring
some
financial
relief

forms
of
cancer.
They

raised over $8,000.
The
Pink
SOCS
held
a
benefit
softball
game
to
raise
money
to
be
used
towards
the
Avon
Walk
this
year.
After
a
day
full
of
teamwork
and
home
runs
the
Pink
SOCS
took
home over $1,500 towards cancer research.
To
those
we
love
and
to
those
we’ve
lost,
one
day
we
will
find
a
cure
to
end
this
horrific
disease.
