Paint the Town Pink 2023
Our entire community comes together in a very colourful way in October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. From hundreds of pink pumpkins to several local businesses running promotions to benefit local cancer support, there are lots of ways to help us paint the town pink over the month ahead.
Help us PAINT THE TOWN PINK in October to support those impacted by cancer in our community!
Painted Pumpkins of Hope
A limited supply MAY be available at the GBCSC on a first-come, first-served basis
Our Painted Pumpkins of Hope are a visible symbol of support throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Introduced a decade ago by 11-year-old Mackena to support her mom roughly a decade ago, they are now a visible sign of hope each October.

Thank you to R & P Desroches Farm for supplying our over 250 pumpkins!
A big thank you also to all the volunteers who helped wash, paint, and decorate pumpkins including volunteers from For Sale on Georgian Bay , Deluxe, and École secondaire Le Caron
OUR PINK COMMUNITY PARTNERS: SHOP LOCAL FOR CANCER SUPPORT IN OUR COMMUNITY
