Pink Proud. Jeep Loud.

Pink Proud. Jeep Loud. is the morning kickoff for the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk at Raymond James Stadium on Saturday, October 24. It's a gathering of Tampa's Jeep community, and if you've seen the local convoys before, you know the drill: a sea of Jeeps decked out in pink, all heading to the same place for the same cause.

The morning starts at the Wing House, 3712 W Columbus Drive, where the convoy rolls out at 6:50 AM. From there, everyone heads to Raymond James Stadium (4201 N Dale Mabry Hwy), parking in Lot 4. It's not just one club showing up, either. The Tampa Jeep Krewe is organizing it, but they're joined by the Pinellas County Jeep Club, Jeep Latino Tampa Bay, the Jeep Girls of Florida, and the Jeep Girl Tribe. Together, they've built a joint team for the walk.

Lot 4 becomes the hub for the morning. There's a DJ and a pink-out station, and trophies will be handed out across several categories—the specific ones will be announced as the day gets closer. For those who want to do more than just show up, the first 150 people to join the team and donate $25 or more get a specially designed Jeep and a breast cancer awareness shirt, both available only in person and while supplies last. There's also a raffle with prizes donated by a long list of local supporters.

Beyond the vehicles, the day is about honoring survivors, standing with those still in treatment, and remembering loved ones. Anyone is welcome to join the walk, and you can go at whatever pace works for you. The convoy is organized by Diane Reese-Marie. It's free to attend, with no registration fee, so you can just show up and be part of it. The gathering starts at 6:30 AM at the Wing House, and the convoy rolls out at 6:50 AM.
