Main Street Lincoln and Avon host
Pink Line Project on Tuesday

[SEPT. 16, 2002]  The Pink Line Project, a cooperative effort between Avon and Main Street Lincoln to raise funds for breast cancer research and distribute educational materials, comes to the Logan County Courthouse lawn at 11:30 a.m. Tuesday.

As part of the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade Day of Commitment in Lincoln, a pink line will be painted on the sidewalk on the north side the courthouse. Trees on the courthouse lawn will be decorated with pink ribbons. Pink lemonade and pink frosted sugar cookies will be given away.

Avon representatives will be on hand to sell the Avon "Kiss Goodbye to Breast Cancer" lipsticks, with 100 percent of the proceeds going to breast cancer research. Pink ribbons will be available for purchase in honor or memory of someone special. The ribbons will be tied on a tree that will be planted on the grounds of the Lincoln Depot.

"This will be great event for learning about breast cancer," noted Larry Adams, Avon sales representative. "It will be tribute to all women who have had breast cancer. We hope there will be a cure soon."
