In what has become an annual event, the Geneseo High School girls basketball team will once again be hosting Pink Zone Night. I talked with Morgan Wassenhove about this years event and why it’s so important.

“Pink Zone Night is January 25th”, said Morgan Wassenhove. The soph game tips at 5:30 and the varsity at 7:00.” Cancer survivors have been invited to be in attendance. Lady Leafs will have an opportunity to have a slideshow played in memory of friends and family on the videoboard.

I asked Mrs. Wassenhove about the recipient of this years event. “All donations are going to 3D Strong Cancer Wellness Group at Hammond-Henry Hospital and Geneseo Breast Cancer Support Group.” Wassenhove noted “There’s a 50/50 raffle, a silent auction with items donated by local businesse, and a bake sale all in the main hallway. We also sold pink shirts and a portion of those sales will also be donated.”

The Lady Leafs welcome Sterling this Thursday the 25th. All students K-12 wearing pink will be admitted free. The Lady Leafs will be sporting their pink uni’s for breast cancer awareness.
