Wearing Pink Tutu Helps Raise $2896 in Funds July 20, 2011 NEW HOLLAND, PA. - Was that really Superior Walls Operation Director Marcus Blomeier dancing around the company's annual barbeque outing wearing a pink tutu, boa and wig?

Yes indeed, the six-foot tall Blomeier, weighing in at a beefy 265 pounds, spent the afternoon today in the fashionable pink outfit. The Marine Corp. veteran was the "winner" of having the most funds pledged to see him dressed in pink as a fundraising effort for the Susan G. Komen for the Cure® organized by the company's corporate controller, Liz McQuiston. More than $800 was raised by company employees, vendors and licensees to see the 37-year old Blomeier outfitted from head-to-toe in pink for the afternoon.

"All our male executives at Superior Walls were great sports and helped us raise almost $2,900 in total for breast cancer awareness and research," says McQuiston, who will be walking in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure event in Philadelphia this October. "The support that the entire company has given to this fundraising effort and to my work at raising awareness for breast cancer are extremely encouraging."

Dozens of people voted with their wallets for several weeks to select the Superior Walls executive they'd most like to see dressed in pink at work. Each dollar pledged received a vote for a specific person at Superior Walls.

"Breast cancer is a very serious disease so I'm happy to do my part to raise funds," says Blomeier, who has worked at Superior Walls for seven years. "I'm blessed with a wonderful wife, daughter and mother who have all been tested and cancer free. I think it's important for everyone to get screened or checked to see if they carry the gene and for early detection. If dressing up in pink helps this cause, I'm ready to do it again!"Superior Walls®, a leading manufacturer of precast foundation systems, is based in New Holland, Pennsylvania with licensee manufacturing operations around the country. Each location was invited to participate in the competition by helping raise funds for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure.

Thank You Marcus, and a Big Thanks for everyone else who Helped Out!!
