Participants and spectators converge in Fairmount Park annually in late October in support of breast cancer awareness. Homage is paid to breast cancer survivors and casualties through individual and group fund raising efforts to further research a cure. Superior audio coverage is needed to deliver messages and announcements outdoors to upwards of ten-thousand attendees and participants of the 5K walk/run.
