The event aims to raise funds in support of breast and ovarian cancer research.
Event organiser Emma Godden said the event was a good way to celebrate mothers who are suffering from cancer.
“This is a amazing event to encourage celebrations of mothers who have breast cancer, ovarian cancer and to get together for a fun day for this fantastic cause,” she said.
“Wear something fun, bright pink, have your smile on your face for the day, bring your drink bottles and dogs are welcome, but please always keep them on the leads.”
Emma Godden and her partner Joshua Brown are organising the Echuca Moama Mother's Day Classic event.
