Carter’s Pink Dress Run
Island View Casino Resort was
a sponsor and organizer of the Carter’s Champions’ Pink Dress Run held in October in Gulfport. The annual event, now in its eighth year, raises money to assist local breast cancer patients and has become a major funding source for the Memorial Hospital Foundation. Island View Champion team
members were by far the largest team to compete. Island View Casino paid employees’ entry fees, and each received a T-shirt and a goodie bag that included PTO for volunteering their time for a great cause.
