This year we will be celebrating the 20th Annual Friends for Life Breast Cancer Awareness walk! We are planning a very exciting event packed with memories from the past 20 years. We will be highlighting all colors of cancer as we support individuals with various types of cancer. We will be handing out special gifts to everyone in attendance and hope to have a record breaking crowd to celebrate this huge milestone!
This year’s walk is scheduled for Saturday, October 14th. We will begin our day with the auction at 9:00 a.m. to be followed by the Celebration Ceremony and then the walk around the square. After the Friends for Life celebration, the Revitalize YC group is planning some fun and different activities that you won’t want to miss! Please follow their Facebook and website page for details as the time gets closer.
For part of our 20 year celebration, we invite anyone that Friends for Life has helped to write a note on how Friends for Life has had an impact on your family. We plan to read some of these notes at the celebration ceremony as a way to show our community how their support of our organization is making a difference. These letters can remain anonymous if you choose. Please return these letters with your registration form or email to friendsforlifeyc@gmail.com .
The entry fee will remain at $20 and be kept in a separate fund that will directly help local cancer patients as the need arises. Your registration will include a free t-shirt and goody bag. We have solicited the local businesses to support our cause. Their sponsorship will pay for the t-shirts. Shirts can be picked up at the GNBank on Wednesday, October 11th from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. If you are unable to pick up your shirt at this time, they will be available the day of the walk. You can also get updates on our Friends for Life page on Facebook, our website and through The Yates Center News. We encourage you to bring your lawn chairs on Saturday to enjoy the auction and celebration ceremony.
If you have any questions, please give me a call at 620-625-2125 or email us at friendsforlifeyc@gmail.com
Thank you,
