Cruisin’ Pink Offers Fun While Fighting Breast Cancer

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the SOMC Cancer Center is offering you a chance to have a great time while helping in the battle against breast cancer. Portsmouth residents have always loved cruising Chillicothe Street and now they can do it for a great cause. 

Everyone is invited to decorate their vehicles pink in honor of press cancer awareness, wear pink, and take part in a fun night of cruising a pre-determined route through the streets of Portsmouth.
