Hats off to this fundraising for cancer research!

50 days from the start of Pink Out 2026! 💕🎀🏐 Since 2007, we have worked with our local volleyball teams and raised more than $125,000 for the Northeast Colorado Cancer Resource Association.

This year, we are excited to have SEVEN area schools participating in our campaign! Ben Blecha and crew with be hosting events throughout the month of October:

10/9 - Peetz Volleyball
10/15 - Sterling Volleyball
10/16 - Prairie Volleyball
10/20 - Caliche Volleyball
10/23 - Merino & Northeastern Volleyball
10/27 - Fleming Volleyball

Thanks to the support of Banner Health and the David Walsh Cancer Center, Nelson Roofing, Fashion and Rations and Bank of Colorado, the hosting teams' shirts will be free of charge! And each of these teams will be selling shirts to their communities to help us raise money. Stay posted for links to order coming soon!

We'll also have shirts for sale at each of our events thanks to Banner Health's Leadership Team who will have information on services offered through the David Walsh Cancer Center. So there are many ways for you to give! And, if you're at another volleyball game where they're raising money for their separate campaign, we encourage you to give to them, too. We are stronger when we are together!

Information will be going out to the teams in the coming days. If you would like to help us out with our 2026 Pink Out, as a sponsor or a school or a donator, please reach out to Ben Blecha at [email protected].

Tuesday Trivia...Colorado Style!🙂 Did you know that Colorado has 26 Scenic and Historic Byways? Thirteen of the twenty-six have been designated "America's Byways"...giving Colorado the distinction of having more nationally recognized byways than any other state.

There is a link in the comments for more detailed info about the Colorado's Byways.

Have you traveled on a Colorado Byway? Share a picture if you have one!
