There are 50 days left until the 2011 Race for the Cure! I am so happy that we have 8 people registered for the team all ready. If you have any friends or family interested, please let them know we would like them to join our team as well.
For such a small team, we are doing amazing on Fundraising. Fundraising is optional. We have reached 52% of our $1,000 goal so far. Up to 75% of the net income from the Race stays right here in our community to fund vital breast cancer health education and breast cancer screening and treatment programs. And the remaining 25% supports the Komen for the Cure Award and Research Grants Programs, which funds groundbreaking breast cancer research.
Team t-shirts will be $7 again this year. Please interoffice mail me the money if you would like one. I am still working on a new design that will incorporate the Pink Plano P. The deadline for team t-shirts will be May 28th.
Thank you!

8 Days Until The Main Event!
Hello! I am back from the funeral of my 80 year old grandma who was once a breast cancer survivor. I am happy to be honoring her at our Race For The Cure in 8 days. Sorry for the lack of communication this year. I switched jobs in March and haven’t been able to give our team the attention it deserves. Hopefully, I can start answering some of your questions.
Team T-shirts – Team shirts have been ordered. I will be picking them up on Wednesday. I will be interoffice mailing them this year. If you don’t work for the City of Plano anymore, please email me where and when we could meet on Wednesday, 6/9.
