The Norfolk Admirals and *Susan G. Komen for the Cure* will hold the third annual "Pink in the Rink" at the Admirals game at Norfolk Scope tomorrow. This popular annual event will seek to educate and raise awareness about breast cancer while also raising monies for *Susan G. Komen for the Cure*.

Events leading up to and during the game include a breast cancer informational session, survivor participation during game night, "Hockey 101- A Clinic for Women" and a silent auction for player-autographed Tampa Bay Lightning items. Even the ice will be pink.

Educating women and men about the importance of early breast cancer detection is one of the primary goals of the event.
