Posted on behalf of Beth Colucci '09.
In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Exercise Professional Majors Club, in conjunction with the Ithaca Cancer Resource Center, is hosting a Breast Cancer Walk. The event, "One Step Closer to a Cure," is Thursday, October 23, from 12:15 to 1:00 p.m. on the Butterfield Stadium track.
It is open to students, faculty, and staff. There is no cost to participate in the event -- just come support the cause. However, we are asking you to get sponsored by friends and family! If you can raise $20, you get a free shirt; if you don't raise enough, but would like to purchase a shirt, they will be available for $20 at the door. You may also make donations at the door.
All of the proceeds will be donated to the Ithaca Cancer Resource Center of the Finger Lakes, formerly known as the Ithaca Breast Cancer Alliance. Included in the event will be music, raffles, food and drink, and recognition of cancer survivors.
Registration and sponsor forms will be available in the Department of Exercise and Sport Science office (CHS 313) and the Wellness Clinic (CHS 302), as well as online at One Step Closer website.
Please drop off your registration forms prior to the event at one of the above locations. If you do not register ahead of time, you may also register at the door.
Again, there is no cost to participate, but we hope you can raise money through sponsorships.
We hope to make this event a huge success, so please come out and help support Breast Cancer Awareness Month. If you cannot participate in the event, but would still like to donate, you may drop off money at either CHS 313 or CHS 302, or donate online to the Cancer Resource Center website.
