Van smash will raise breast cancer funds

Jack Ellena Honda, 2112 W. 29th St., is offering to members of the public the opportunity to smash a pink van with a sledgehammer this week to raise funds to fight breast cancer.

For $1, anyone can take two swings at the van. At 1 p.m. Friday, city leaders and the co-chairs of the Stepping Out Against Breast Cancer event will be invited to participate, along with breast cancer survivors.

The dealership’s Bash Out Breast Cancer van will be available for denting up until the Stepping Out Against Breast Cancer dance on Oct. 24 at Crown Automotive, 3430 Iowa.
