In the pink
Compuware Arena will mark the seventh annual Pink Out! for Breast Cancer
Awareness this at 7:05 p.m. this Saturday when the Plymouth Whalers host the
Kingston Frontenacs on the pink ice at the arena. The pinking of the ice is a first at
Compuware Arena since the building opened in 1996. Hines Park Lincoln, 40601
Ann Arbor Road in Plymouth, is responsible for underwriting the cost of pink ice.
General Manager Ryan Kolb, far left, tinted his hair pink after 100 percent of his
staff donated to reach his challenge. The pinking of the ice is also the first of sev-
eral events surrounding the game on Saturday. On Monday Plymouth Whalers
headed to Indigo Spa & Salon in Canton to get their hair dyed pink. The Whalers
will have pink hair all week in a show of support for Breast Cancer Awareness and
wear the distinctive pink jerseys for the game. The pink jerseys will be auctioned
off after Saturday's game with proceeds donated to Karmanos Cancer Institute.
