Get Out Your Walking Shoes
October 5, 2012
The color "pink" is bursting out all over. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and pink ribbons on labels, pink shoes and gloves on athletes and this Sunday pink T-shirts on over 12,000 walkers who have enrolled in the "Believe Walk" in Redlands.
Begun five years ago by local friends who had all experienced breast cancer, the event has grown at a fairly unbelievable rate. Stater Bros Charities were on board as a supporter from the very beginning and this very amazing event gas raised thousands of dollars for the fight against breast cancer as well as other cancers.
On Sunday, October 7, 2012, beginning at 6:30 a.m., the day-of registration will open. If you have not already registered on-line, you can register Sunday. The registration desk will be at Orange and Stae Streets in Downtown Redlands. The registration fee will be $50.
The start line will be at State and 9th Street and the finish will be at the Redlands Bowl. The walk begins at 8:00 a.m.. There will be a cancer survivor photo op on the stage of the Redlands Bowl .
There are 5K and 10K walk routes. The 10K walk route has a small uphill climb.
The weather should be absolutely beautiful and camaraderie will be memorable.
