Take a Kid to the Gameday, Pink out festivities set for Mars Hill game

Take a Kid to the Gameday, Pink out festivities set for Mars Hill game
Posted: Sep 22, 2014

JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – A slew of activities have been set for Carson-Newman's Oct. 4 contest against Mars Hill. The game is a pink out in recognition of October being Breast Cancer Awareness month and has been designated Take a Kid to the Game Day (TAKG) – an NCAA initiative to expose children to athletic events.

Carson-Newman's football team will all don pink shoelaces for the contest in recognition of those who have had their life or a loved one affected by breast cancer. 

Fans are encouraged to eschew orange and blue and instead wear pink for the contest. 

In association with TAKG, all children under the age of 13 get in free to the game who are accompanied by an adult with a full-price ticket. 

Prior to and during the game, children will have opportunities to enjoy sports-themed face painting.  Carson-Newman's women's basketball program will play host to a kidzone filled with inflatables.  The C-N ROTC will oversee a football toss and a clown will be on hand to create magical balloon animals.

Call 865-471-3396 for tickets.
