The event was held by Great Lakes Breast Cancer Support Group, “Breast Friends”, and was a chance for those whose lives have been impacted by breast cancer to gather, reflect and raise awareness.

More than 100 pink lady silhouettes were on display in a meaningful show of support for women and families affected by breast cancer.

White silhouettes were also planted in the ground to commemorate those who have died from the disease, and a blue man was placed among the others to represent the men who have been impacted.
