It’s Game Week and we’re gearing up for Painting the Peninsula Pink, proudly presented by the M.E. Davenport Foundation!


Our signature event this year is the Gogebic Miners Homecoming football game on Saturday afternoon against the Stephenson Eagles. On that day, we’ll throw a Pink Party! We’ll have games for kids, along with bucket drawings featuring pink merchandise. Also, an online silent auction begins at 3 p.m. (EST) today and will continue through 4 p.m. (EST) on Saturday. As part of this online auction, the Gogebic Miners pink jerseys will be available to bid on. The minimum bid is $100. View the auction.

Winners will be announced following the game.

There is an opportunity to support the SHF Breast Health Fund with a tax-deductible charitable gift. All money raised during the month of October goes directly to the SHF Breast Health Fund, which helps men and women across the Upper Peninsula with out-of-pocket breast health expenses. One hundred percent of the money raised stays in the Upper Peninsula. So, please consider a gift to help support this much-needed, invaluable fund. 

During the month of October, SHF is encouraging businesses across the U.P. to become day sponsors and consider hosting something special to raise money for the fund. A day sponsorship is $150 and two days is $250. On those days, businesses will be recognized on the SHF Facebook page for playing a role in helping replenish the fund. Thank you so much for your support. 

Finally. Go Miners!
