Break & Run Drill Team showed their support for breast cancer awareness month by competing at the 3rd annual Barrel Race Against Cancer at the Lighting C Arena, in McAlester, Oklahoma, October 21. The team not only dressed their horses and themselves in pink, they also brought with them donations that they had been collecting.

National Breast Cancer Awareness month began in October 1985. Since then, people have organized luncheons, fashion shows, walks and a variety of other activities to help raise money for the fight against this indiscriminating enemy. Southeastern Oklahoma has added a unique event to this list, the Barrel Race Against Breast Cancer. Proceeds from the entry fees will be donated to the Tulsa Project Women Inc. This is a program that funds mammograms and breast cancer treatments for un-insured women. The money raised at this event goes to assist patients in Southeastern Oklahoma.
