For Thursday, October 2nd, the Lincoln Daily News Paint the Paper Pink top picture is “Bee” Laurie Paige and crew from Bee’s Landscaping along with a special photo bomber. The large stacked pumpkin “dressed” in camouflage with a pink hue will be offered at the Pink Pumpkin Auction to Benefit the American Cancer Society tonight at Collision Concepts.

Bee is one of the many local businesses that have donated items for the auction because they believe in the work done by the American Cancer Society. Bee emphasized that belief when she named her little photo bomber “Hunting for a Cure!”

Please join Bee and all the other local businesses in supporting ACS by attending the auction tonight starting at 5 p.m.
