PABLO — October is Breast Cancer Awareness month so cancer survivor Cheryl Morigeau and breast cancer survivor Claudette Bird, both of whom work at Two Eagle River School, planned an event for staff and students. Bird and Morigeau started by asking the students to decorate their lockers and wear pink. The kitchen crew got into the act by making a huge breast cancer ribbon and covering it with photos of healthy food. Then the students themselves asked if they could do a breast cancer awareness walk.
“That’s easy, we can all go for a walk,” Morigeau said.
So staff and students donned pink shirts, pants, socks, sunglasses, shocking pink wigs, socks, even fuzzy slippers and walked from TERS to the stoplight on Courville Trail and back on Oct. 13.
It was a beautiful fall day. Mothers brought their babies in strollers and young children. Motorists honked their support of a cure for breast cancer.
