The Student Foundation at Northeastern State University and the Young Survivors Coalition of Tulsa have teamed up to host Pack the House Pink on Saturday, November 6 at Doc Wadley Stadium. Events for the day include tailgating and a silent auction.
The event is rescheduled from Oct. 23 due to inclement weather.
Pack the House Pink T-shirts are for sale for $10 at the RiverHawk Shoppe on both the Tahlequah and Broken Arrow campuses. Supporters are asked to wear the shirts to the game on Nov. 6 to spread awareness of breast cancer.
Tailgating starts at 11 a.m. in the Gable Field parking lot, located adjacent to the stadium. Cooks will be provided with pink aprons to wear.
During the tailgate, a silent auction will be set up, with bidding going on through halftime. Items include a Scentsy candle, Tour de Pink jerseys, a signed football and Guess sunglasses from the NSU Oklahoma College of Optometry.
The football game begins at 2 p.m. against the University of Eastern New Mexico Greyhounds.
