The members have enthusiastically supported an optional uniform change to pink from navy blue to honor those near and dear, to increase awareness and to raise funds for Gilda’s Club Northern New Jersey.

“We have members who are breast cancer survivors or have family members who are survivors or have lost their battle but fought to the end,” said TVAC President Izzy Infield (photos, right).
