Lani Kai supporting breast cancer awareness month with event Saturday

The Lani Kai Island Resort will be honoring breast cancer awareness month with a special “Pink Out” event on Saturday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

The resort is teaming up with Michelob ULTRA on the event. The hotel will be decked out in pink for an afternoon of games, with a DJ, pink merchandise, a special pink drink menu and freebies for guests. Raffles will feature prizes including a cooler, an Florida Gulf Coast University beer pong table, a Michelob ULTRA golf bag and gift baskets.

A portion of the proceeds from the special pink drink menu will be donated to the American Cancer Society.

All of the raffle proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society, and guests can also donate by scanning the event’s QR code, said Lani Kai Island Resort Marketing Director Kasey Conidaris-Mendiola.

“About one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime,” Conidaris-Mendiola said. “Fundraisers like this help support lifesaving research, early detection screenings for underserved communities and direct support for patients.”

The special pink drink menu to support the American Cancer Society will include the “Pink Starburst” with vanilla vodka, watermelon schnapps and a sour mix, “Cherry Colada” and Michelob Ultra.

The Lani Kai Island Resort is encouraging guests to wear pink to show support.
