MONTICELLO — Students and staff at George L. Cooke Elementary School dressed to the nines in pink and denim on Thursday, Oct. 27 for the school’s annual “pink and denim” fundraiser to support breast cancer awareness.  

The yearly event offers students and staff the opportunity to wear pink and denim attire in exchange for a donation. This year, the school raised $675, which was donated to Ride 2 Survive Sullivan County. The local organization provides gas cards to Sullivan County residents who are currently undergoing cancer treatment. 

Following the event, the Cooke Elementary staff enjoyed a delicious breakfast in celebration of their fantastic fundraising achievement.
