A Pink Ribbon Day Greyhound race meeting will be held at Gosford Greyhound Race Club to raise money for Cancer Council NSW on Tuesday, September 22.
The meeting will be hosted by Ms Raelee Shearer, Central Coast greyhound trainer and breast cancer survivor.
Ms Shearer said she has made a decision to be involved in raising funds for Cancer Council NSW as her way of giving something back.
“Cancer Council NSW funds more cancer research than any other charity in the state. “It also provides many services that help everyone, especially cancer patients and their families,” Ms Shearer said.
The race meeting has been sponsored by several businesses, stud masters, greyhound industry participants and local community members.
There will be a raffle, face painting, pink hairspray, pink nails, a lolly guessing competition and snow cones on the night.
All money raised from the night will be presented to Cancer Council NSW to support their work with patients and families who have been affected by this disease.
