News : Vinton man painting the town pink in honor of breast cancer survivors

Alan Merchant is painting these ribbons in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Alan Merchant is hoping to paint the town pink. He is offering painted 6' pink ribbons on your yard. If you're a survivor he'll add "survivor" on the ribbon. The paint is water based so won't become a permanent addition to your yard. Cost is $30 and all proceeds go to Benton County Survivors who have hosted the Party in Pink 5K and offer support to each other and newly diagnosed women. Leave a message with Alan and he will return your call to make arrangements, 472-2135.
