Carroll’s Dragon Nation knows how to rally — especially when it’s for a cause close to home. On October 17, ahead of the Carroll vs. Northwest football game, the community will come together for the Dragons Care Pink Out Tailgate, a festive and heartfelt celebration supporting both Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the CISD staff who give so much year-round.
From 5 to 6:30 p.m. at Touchdown Alley on the west side of Dragon Stadium, guests will enjoy food, games, giveaways, photo ops and a healthy dose of community spirit. The free event also marks the finale of Dragons Care’s online auction (Oct. 2–17), which raises funds to provide grants for Carroll ISD teachers and staff facing unexpected hardships.
Founded by a group of parents and educators, Dragons Care began as a grassroots effort to quietly help those in the district navigating medical crises or financial emergencies. Today, it’s a fully-fledged nonprofit dedicated to supporting the well-being of CISD employees — and creating a culture of compassion on campus and beyond.
This year’s tailgate is presented by Wynne Moore and Associates, with generous contributions from Feedstore BBQ & More, HTeaO Southlake, Peace, Love & Little Donuts, Event Art Co. and Laura Lemonade Luxury Travel.
Everyone is welcome to join this spirited show of support where pink meets pride, and every bite and bid helps a Dragon in need. Just remember to RSVP.
