CHICAGO, IL - Thousands gathered at Mt. Greenwood Park on Saturday for the 24th annual Ginger Rugai Y-Me Softball Tournament, which celebrates breast cancer survivors in the neighborhood while honoring those who have passed.

"People are there to compete and have fun, but also to remember someone who has passed away to breast cancer," Rugai said. "It's very emotional, but a great day with about 1,200 women and the incredible generosity of the community."
