Augusta Regional Airport (AGS) is proud to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month by presenting the Fifth Annual Field of Pink Display!

The Field of Pink consists of pink flags placed around the Airport entrance sign to honor those who have fought the breast cancer battle. The commemorative flags will remain in place for the entire month of October.

Everyone is invited to join the Airport in the effort to bring awareness to this terrible disease that affects one out of every eight women in the U.S. The Airport will sell pink flags through October 29th for $1. The Airport will also sell t-shirts, one for $20 or two for $30. These items may be purchased at the Airport Monday – Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. 100% of proceeds go directly to the Piedmont Augusta Foundation’s Miracle Mile Walk.

"Because you support the Miracle Mile Walk, more women will have access to lifesaving screenings, and we know screening mammograms save lives," said Laurie Ott, President of Piedmont Augusta Foundation. "When you give to the Miracle Mile Walk your money stays local and supports women in our community. Piedmont Augusta Foundation appreciates Augusta Regional Airports partnership and many years of support!"

“Through our beautiful pink display, we again steadfastly support the Field of Dreams Campaign and everything it represents.” said Herbert L. Judon, Jr., Augusta Regional Airport Executive Director. “We hope the small part we play makes a difference in the lives of those battling breast cancer, the efforts of healthcare providers, and related research efforts.”
