Annual Peace Goes Pink campaign returns to Grande Prairie during CIBC Run for the Cure

The Swan City is turning pink once again for the Pomeroy Hotel’s second annual “The Peace Goes Pink” campaign to support the Grande Prairie CIBC Run for the Cure.

The run is scheduled for October 6th at Muskoseepi Park and aims to raise money and awareness for breast cancer research.

The Peace Goes Pink campaign and the CIBC Run For the Cure have been landmark events in Grande Prairie for years, raising nearly $83K last year, and this year, the organization has set the target at $85K.

“This event brings our community together for a cause that touches the lives of so many,” Pomeroy Lodging President Stefan Nasalski says.

The Pomeroy is encouraging anyone interested in participating in the Run for the Cure to register as a team or consider joining Team Pomeroy. Additionally, those who are interested in supporting the cause in other ways can donate to an individual or team, or as a general donation.

The Pomeroy Hotel will play host to a special “Guitars and Brunch” on October 6th, following the Run for the Cure event from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. featuring the Brent Boivin Band.
