“At RLHC, we understand that breast cancer has had an impact on the lives of the people closest to us and the people closest to our guests,” said RLHC Chief Marketing Officer Bill Linehan. “According to the American Cancer Society, one in eight women born today in the US will get breast cancer at some point. There is a distinct need for increased awareness not only about diagnosis but also about treatment and the brave individuals who have fought so hard against this disease. We’re proud to be a part of an initiative that aligns our core values of local experiences, family-friendly service and destinations to explore with a variety of initiatives that highlight the significance of this cause.”
