The Countdown to the 2012 Race for the Cure (R) Begins...

Today marks 86 days until the annual CNY Race for the Cure (R) at the NYS Fairgrounds. And while that may seem like a long way off, in terms of fundraising, it's not much time at all!

Team Go Pink or Go Home! will be racing again for the third consecutive year, and our fundraising goal is $1,000. Our team consists of runners and walkers, and our goal is to have fun, raise money, and of course, snag all of the free goodies they hand out before the race.

If you're not interested in participating on race day, there are still a number of ways you can get involved:

Make a donation

"Sleep In for the Cure" ~ not an early riser? Go to http://komencny.org/ to register to "sleep in" for the cure - you'll register just like you'd do for the race, but instead of racing, all you have to do is sleep! You can still fundraise, too.

Volunteer ~ another excellent way to get involved on race day. You can register to volunteer by visiting http://komencny.org/.

Host a Fundraiser ~ host a dinner, have a party, or have a garage sale. You can donate the funds to Susan G. Komen for the Cure (R), or to a specific team that will be participating on race day.

Interested in joining a team? Email nicchenet@gmail.com. See you on race day!

Planning Ahead

Last year's inaugural Rally for the Cure (CNY)/Traci Morey Zimmer Memorial Golf Tournament was a success, and we are already in the process of finding a date for our second annual tournament. We're thinking late September again, so be sure to bookmark this blog and check back as we will post the final date once we decide.

Thinking ahead, we will need volunteers and donors again, so if you know you may be interested in helping us out, please leave a comment or send an email to nicchenet@gmail.com so that we have your information on file.

Thank you for your continued support!
