The Las Vegas Adventurer

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and to help raise awareness and a little money, Pink Jeep Tours of Las Vegas has teamed up with the Nevada Cancer Institute for the first annual “Trek for the Cure.”

Is it to play and relax, check out the new sights, visit family or friends, work-related, or maybe a little of all of the above? Or are you one of the fortunate few who gets to call themselves a local?
