The 15th Annual Susan G. Komen Puget Sound Race for the Cure is scheduled on Saturday, June 21 at Quest Field. This raises funds for breast cancer research and helps medically underserved women.
Our daughter, Cherise, did the race last year with some friends just to help raise funds. This year she and my friend, Stephanie, encouraged me to do the 5K Walk with them, so we decided to start a team. It’s called “The Poof Mamas”.
My last day of chemo will be June 19th and the last day of the school year is June 17th–two reasons to celebrate with this walk on the 21st. I would love to have you join us. We are going to do the 5K Family Walk. All the information you need to register or just find out more about it is at komenpugetsound.org.
Cherise says it’s really fun. We all get pink T-shirts and lots of good-for-you treats and samples at the end of the walk Plus it’s for a good cause that is also tax deductable. If you register on-line by Friday, May 30 at 5:00 p.m. you get a team t-shirt. I’m not sure if that means it says “The Poof Mamas” or what.
I’m signing up today! Couldn’t think of a better way to spend a day than walking with my friends and supporting the Komen Foundation. Thanks for the invite.
