Union held a Paint the Town Pink event. There was a wreath hanging, proclamation and cancer remembrance walk at the Courthouse in Union. The Walk included luminaries and pink lights lining the streets of downtown Union and pink ribbon decals displayed in local business windows. The walk around Union was in honor of cancer survivors and in memory of those that lost their battle with cancer.
