The Palm Coast Rowing Club held a "Paddle in Pink" row on Oct. 22, drawing about 25 participants and raising just under $1,000 for the AdventHealth Foundation's Pink Army.

"This was our first pink row, and we hope to make it an annual event in order to raise breast cancer awareness," Palm Coast Rowing Club Secretary/Membership Committee Chair Alaine Donovan said in a news release.

AdventHealth Foundation Director John Subers was at the boat launch at the Palm Harbor Golf Club to see the rowers off.

Participants, wearing pink and rowing shells adorned with pink balloons, rowed from the Palm Harbor Golf Club to Bings Landing and back, according to the news release.
