The 15th Annual Komen Race for the Cure is on Sunday, September 28, 2008. Those who want to register go to:

Registration is $25 for adults and $20 for kids. You get a t-shirt and refreshments to follow the race. There is a Family Fun walk that is about a mile, 5k walk, and 5k timed run. I think I am going to do the 5k walk. If you have never done race for the cure before you should come out and support these Breast Cancer survivors and the support to find the cure. It really is an amazing thing to attend. Our company will have a table there so if you come make sure you stop by the Toledo Surgical Specialist table. We have one of the leading surgeons in our practice for NW Ohio for breast cancer. Her name is Doctor Candilee Butler. Just wanted to give those interested an FYI. I missed registration last year so I couldn't do the walk so instead I just ran the table. Up to 75% of the net proceeds raised each year at the Komen Northwest Ohio Race for the Cure remain in Northwest Ohio. No other race or breast cancer fundraiser allocates as much to local programs. Since its inception, the Komen Northwest Ohio Affiliate has given more than $3.8 million to fund breast cancer programs that directly benefit the 18 county service area. At least 25% of the net funds raised support the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Award and Research Grant Program that is regarded as the most innovative and responsive grant program in breast cancer research today.
