A Message from our Founder
Welcome to the Dig Pink community! We are excited for you to be a part of Side-Out’s mission to serve those living with metastatic breast cancer. If you haven’t yet, be sure to join our Dig Pink Facebook group where you can connect and collaborate with other Dig Pink organizers and supporters.
For over a decade, Side-Out has seen thousands of teams join us in experiencing the magic of these Dig Pink events for themselves and we want to help more teams make these memorable experiences in their communities.
This guide walks you through hosting a Dig Pink event and is filled with resources you can grab and share with your coaches, parents, players, and school!
We wish you the best of luck on your journey to creating a wonderful experience and tradition for your athletes and community.
Thank you for supporting our mission.
Sincerely,
Rick Dunetz
Executive Director & Founder
