Runway for a Cure

Story by Woody Woodard. Photography by Barbara Woodard & Woody Woodard.

The American Cancer Society’s 25th annual “Runway for a Cure” was held at the Carl Perkins Civic Center on Oct. 1. Eighteen stores participated in this year’s event! Many beautiful outfits were displayed at the runway event giving great outfit ideas to attendees! The Real Men Wear Pink group came out strong for this year’s event, too! The show opened with a Patti Lewis Memorial Presentation. Lewis lived a life which today encourages other women who face the same diagnosis. Dr. Donald R. Lewis spoke to the audience about her determined will to live her life.

Once the stores completed their trot down the runway, it was time for the very large parade of survivors! They were the living testament to early detection, timely treatment and a positive outlook on living for many years forward.
