Be a part of the cure..

Come be a part of the cure!
I have two wonderful suggestions for things that you can do in the next two weeks to be a part of the cure! Whether it be Asthma or Breast Cancer.... you can make a difference in the lives of many people by participating in either event, and we'd love to have you as part of the SKIDS Team for one... Or even better, for both!

~~ OPTION 1
Saturday, May 5th - Blow the Whistle on Asthma at the American Lung Association's Asthma Walk at Sugar House Park, Salt Lake City
Registration: 8:00 am
Event start time: 9:00 am
Until recently, I did not know that asthma is the leading chronic illness among children and the cause of more than 5,000 deaths in the U.S. each year. I'm sure there are many more people who are unaware of the devastating effects of this chronic lung disease.
Therefore, I have signed up as a Team Captain in the American Lung Association of Utah's Blow the Whistle on Asthma Walk 2007 and I am recruiting team members to join me at the Walk and help raise funds for this worthy cause.
Please visit our team web page at http://www.mrsnv.com/evt/e01/team.jsp?id=1425&tid=333 and follow the instructions to join our Walk team.

~~ OPTION 2
Saturday, May 12th - Race for the Cure at the Komen Foundation Breast Cancer walk/run
Start Time: 8:30am (End Time: 12:00pm)
Location: The Gateway at South Temple and 400 West in Salt Lake City
It's not only women that are affected by breast cancer! Their families and friends are all affected too. In honor of all the children that have been affected because their Mom, Grandmother, Aunt, Sister, or Friend has suffered, died or hopefully recovered from Breast Cancer... please join the SKIDS Team for the Race for the Cure!

Please go to one of the following pages to register or support our team:

You may know that one in eight women will be stricken with breast cancer in her lifetime. What you may not know is that you can help these women and thousands of others in the fight against breast cancer.
On May 12, 2007, I will be participating in the Komen Salt Lake City Race for the Cure® with a great team of dedicated people. Join the fight by registering as part of our team or even individually or by supporting our efforts with a pledge or a contribution. The money raised through the Race will fund vital education, screening and treatment programs for underserved women in our own community and support the national search for a cure.
We need your support! Every step counts!
