BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So Pimlico Race Track is going Pink.

The Maryland affiliate of Susan G. Komen is teaming up with the Maryland Jockey Club to spread awareness about the disease.

Tonight Pimlico lit a wall of a clubhouse pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month.
 

In a grass roots effort to raise awareness with the community, neighbors were given pink bulbs, donated by Mood-factory, to light their porches pink during the month of October.
