2019 Paint the Paper Pink

Page 16 2019 Paint the Paper Pink Lincoln Daily News October 2019 Other big contributors behind the scenes included Noah Atkinson at Lincoln Printers. Noah has become an honorary member of the relay team because he does so much to help promote the event. This year he not only printed a large number of signs advertising the events, he added stickers that were given out Thursday evening to auction winners showing that they support breast cancer awareness and the Pink Pumpkin Project. Another behind the scenes helper that means a great deal to the event is Gail Apel-Sasse of Gail’s Pumpkin Patch.

In addition, Gail sets up the fall arrangements that are at the front door of Collision Concepts as guests arrive at the beginning of the night.
