Another year has passed and here we are again looking forward to the next 31 days when Lincoln Daily News will "Paint the Paper Pink" in observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. During the weeks ahead we will share with our readers photos of our community donning their pink shirts in a show of support for all those who have fought or are currently battling breast cancer. It is a time when we can reach out to our local warriors as a community and say, "We support you, you are in our thoughts and in our prayers."

As always, the first picture of the month features the staff at Collision Concepts in Lincoln.

Tonight is also the annual Pink Pumpkin Auction to benefit the American Cancer Society. That auction began as a partnership effort between Collision and Lincoln Daily News, and it has grown continually. Tonight we will have a record number of donated items disbursed between the live and silent auctions. We hope the entire community will come out to support this very worthy cause.

Collision Concepts in located at 1005 Macon Street, on the west side of Lincoln. Doors will open at 5 p.m.

Hope to see you there!
