What is the "Pink Out"?

Our 3rd Annual Lake County Schools Pink Out will take place this October.  The event began at Hanover Middle School in 2023.  Last year the event grew to over a dozen schools and raised nearly $5000 to assist the work of the Northwest Cancer Centers Foundation. 

The event is deigned to be led by students and student organizations who ask their peers and faculty to donate $1 and wear pink on a given day in October.
