Rimrock Mall celebrates the spirit of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this Saturday, October 14th from 11 AM to 1:30 PM in Center Court at the mall. Pack the Mall in Pink is a fun (and occasionally emotional) way to support local breast cancer patients and recognize the courageous survivors in our community. There is a raffle, a fashion show, delightful mocktails, a pop-up photo booth, yummy finger foods, and more.

VIP Tickets are just $20.

While the fashion show, raffle, and other activities are free, it's well worth it to buy a $20 VIP ticket, which includes access to VIP Mocktails and Hors d’oeuvres and a gift bag filled with goodies. 2022's gift bags were easily worth far more than twenty bucks. Ours included free pizzas, free sandwiches, free donuts, and lots of other fun stuff.
