October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and this past Friday night, a Pike County high school football team and its cheerleaders adopted pink as their school color for a special occasion. This is a school-wide event, it's not just what we're doing with the football team but our cheerleaders are involved in the girls basketball team and we just want to lead that push to show everybody that there needs to be awareness, there needs to be more people involved in a Breast Cancer Awareness event like this. Before the game started, the team honored Elkhorn City optometrist Dr. Mary Ann Belcher who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. Belcher is no stranger to the players or the cheerleaders and she's known throughout the county as a huge supporter of East Ridge High School. Yeah, that's something special I think about our area here with Elkhorn, Millard and Fetch Creek all together. We've all kind of come together for Mary Ann Belcher and try to get behind her and let her know that she's not alone in this fight. Before Friday night's football game, as she was standing on the 50-yard line surrounded by the players and the cheerleaders, Dr. Mary Ann Belcher realized she truly will not fight this battle alone. Mary Ann, you ready to fight? No! Belcher was presented with a pink helmet signed by the entire football team as a reminder of the support she's receiving from not just her family and friends, but the entire community.
