Tv Anchors, Rodeo, And Breast Cancer Benefit

Posted by Anonymous on 125 Points
Hello to all - -
I promote a pro rodeo that hosts a benefit for breast cancer, called “Tough Enough to Wear Pink.” Cowboys, rodeo personnel and fans are encouraged to wear pink to the rodeo and funds are raised for breast cancer research.

The local morning TV anchors have helped promote the event for 3 years, by handing out pink items on site, (jelly bracelets, pink ribbons, etc.) and by riding horses in the grand entry (the female anchor is an accomplished horsewoman.)

We are looking for something different for them to do this year, at the rodeo, to help promote our pink night. It needs to be something they can talk about on air, to draw attention to the event, and that is fiscally sensible to do at the rodeo. Any ideas would be appreciated!

    Why not create an auddience participation fun "roundup" EVENT: paint a dozen pigs pink and the audience can round them up in the arena for a donation of not less than $50 Call it the Pink Porker Roundup for cancer. even have pink pig piggy banks for sale?

    Thanks for the suggestions so far.

    Pro rodeo and men in drag are incompatible, but thanks for the laugh this morning!

    Here's a quirky option for you-- a velcro wall.

    Perhaps the velcro wall could be pink but you could have a contest to see who can jump the highest... Call it, "COWBOY UP for Breast Cancer"
