Berlin’s going pink!

America’s Coolest Small Town is doing its part for ‘Race for the Cure’

The Town of Berlin is going to paint the town pink in honor of the Komen Race for the Cure Saturday, April 8 all over the downtown. More than 25 local businesses will participate in the event, decking out the fronts of their stores in sidewalk chalk with drawings and inspirational quotes, in an effort to turn the town into a giant greeting card for all the runners and supporters who participate in the Race for the Cure in Ocean City.

Although nearly all the local merchants are participating in the chalk event, nearly a dozen are going the extra mile by offering special “Paint the Town Pink” sales. 

According to town officials, the festivities will center around Fins in downtown Berlin where there will be live music and happy hour pricing during the festival. Fins will donate 10 percent of all their proceeds that day and shops will be donating a portion of all sales to the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Research Center. There will be pink beer from Big Oyster Brewery as well as pink beer from Burley Oak. But the festivities extend beyond the area in front of Fins, though. In fact, AGH will sponsor a Pink Lemonade stand at the opposite end of town by the Berlin Visitor Center.
The Worcester County Tourism Office will sponsor a pink costume/outfit competition centered in the parking lot behind Fins where prizes will be given for the best costume/outfit, including a pink kitchenaide mixer, a pink scooter and pink pet toy.
So arrive in pink, and be prepared to paint the town pink! Kids and pets welcome.
