Pink Out Registration

CORVALLIS – Oregon State’s gymnastics and women’s basketball programs have teamed up again and are inviting fans to breakfast to support a fantastic cause.

The sixth annual Pink Out Breakfast and Silent Auction will be hosted by the programs’ booster clubs – the 10.0 Club and The Rebounders – on Saturday, Feb. 23, in the Club Level of Reser Stadium. The event is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. with the silent auction and breakfast. All proceeds collected from the breakfast and silent auction will be donated to The Corvallis Clinic Foundation’s Project H.E.R. (Help. Enlightenment. Resources.). This year’s auction will includes a football throwing lesson from an OSU football player, throwing out the first pitch at an OSU baseball and softball game, and much more!

Project H.E.R. - Project H.E.R. is a comprehensive breast health services program available to women in Benton, Linn and Lincoln counties. The program provides awareness, education and support for all women, from the time of a breast cancer diagnosis through survivorship. The Project H.E.R. team consists of a nurse navigator, a clinical social worker, MammaCare Specialists and many volunteers who are breast cancer survivors.

Saturday’s event follows the previous evening’s Pink Out gymnastics meet where the Beavers host Arizona and Seattle Pacific at Gill Coliseum at 7p.m.

Fans are encouraged to support the cause by purchasing an official Pink Out t-shirt from Beaver Authentics at its location in Gill Coliseum. All fans that purchase the official t-shirt and wear it to the women’s basketball game on Friday, Feb. 15 or the gymnastics meet on Friday, Feb. 22 will receive free general admission tickets to the events. A portion of the proceeds will go to The Corvallis Clinic Foundation’s Project H.E.R.
