For the past decade, Pink on the Dirt has been one of the signature events of the Snake River Stampede, bringing the Treasure Valley together to support the fight against breast cancer. What began as a fundraising luncheon has grown into a powerful community tradition featuring inspiring survivor stories, auctions, entertainment, and hundreds of supporters dressed in pink—all with one goal: helping local women and men receive lifesaving breast cancer screenings.
