Dear editor:
The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Run for the Cure will be right here in Alliston and it’s not too late to sign up! Please visit http://www.runforthecure.com/
We will be giving away a patio heater for the top online fundraiser – just in time for the cool nights! The patio heater was kindly donated by Crown Vertiy. Approximately retail value is $450! Prize will be awarded the day of the event. (The highest amount of donations per person, not as a team ) Good luck!
Alliston’s 3rd Canadian Breast Cancer Run For the Cure event takes place on October 6, in the East Side Mario’s parking lot. Registration begins at 9 a.m. and the Walk /Run will start at 10:30 a.m. Registering online by September 20th to receive your official T-shirt.
For those who have not registered online, T-shirts will be limited. All T-shirts will be given out on the Run Date when you check in.
This year the Foundation is asking everyone to pay $40 to cover any cost. In previous years they found that people were signing up to receive their official T-shirts but not raising any money. If anyone who has not registered online yet and are not comfortable paying the $40 fee please contact me at esmerin@rogers.com
If you can’t register online bring your donation sheet and money to the registration table on October 6th!
Each participant will receive one ticket for a hamburger for after your walk/run. Each participant will also receive a ticket to win some fabulous raffle prizes after the walk/run, and your T-shirt!
Raffle prizes this year have come in from our fabulous community partners and include: basket full of skin care/makeup products; BBQ items; jewellery from Stella & Dot; sunglasses; flowers….just to name a few!
If you are unable to walk / or run but still want to support this event, come out and cheer the participants on. You can also purchase tickets for the raffle, and make a donation for a hamburger.
