Hi Everyone ...PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN. THANKS
We just wanted to drop you a quick update to let you know that b for a cure's inaugural edition has finally gone to press!!!!
While the process took much longer than originally anticipated, we are so very excited about the quality of the final product. Again, we would like to thank our anxious supporters and all of those who have pre-purchased copies of the book. The printing company has advised us that delivery is anticipated in early December - so it should be a boobie-filled-Christmas for all!
As most of you know, we have been offering a $10 discount to the book's cover price during our pre-sale. Unfortunately, we can only offer this promotion until October 15th, after which the books will be sold at the full cover price. So if you've been stalling, or know someone looking for an awesome Christmas present, jump on this opportunity before pricing increases. You may purchase a copy here.
Please help us raise funds for breast cancer charities by posting the b for a cure website (http://www.bforacure.com) on your Facebook, Twitter or just emailing friends & family - it will merely take a moment and we'll be forever indebted. What a great holiday gift
We're trying to keep our email updates to a minimum, so not to clog your inbox. However, feel free to reach out at any time with questions, comments or concerns. |

Opening Ceremony
The Komen 3-Day for the Cure begins early Friday morning with the Opening Ceremony. When you arrive, take a moment to write the names of the people in your life who have lost their lives to breast cancer on the white ribbons we will provide. Those ribbons will be used to create a special memorial flag that will be raised during the ceremony.
This celebration is not just for participants. Friends and family are highly encouraged to attend, though please note that seating will not be available, so if you are unable to stand for 30-60 minutes, you may want to bring a folding chair. Please allow extra travel time due to expected traffic congestion at the site.
After the Opening Ceremony is over, participants will begin walking the 60-mile route and start a journey of a lifetime. It will be even more special if you are there to help send them off with smiles and encouragement. We'll also have the Shop3Day.com™ store on site if you'd like to purchase a souvenir for yourself or your participant.

Cheering Stations
Public cheering stations are a great way to show your support along the route to encourage
walkers and let them know that you are with them every step of the way. Seeing familiar faces cheering them on can provide that extra burst of energy that gets them to take that next step or go the next mile. Create banners, hold up signs, bring some music and make some noise - anything to make them smile, get energized and keep walking.

After three days and 60 miles, participants will take a final and incredibly emotional victory walk into the Closing Ceremony. Friends, family and supporters should arrive at the Closing Ceremony site at least one hour early to get the best view of the program. We encourage you to carpool or take public transportation. Not only is it better for the planet, but it will help lessen traffic congestion for everyone.
All walkers and crew members should remain in the Participant Holding Area where they will receive a victory shirt, cheer on fellow walkers and crew members and celebrate one last time together before their dramatic victory walk. The Participant Holding Area is CLOSED to spectators. If you wish to meet with a participant before the Ceremony begins, please have them meet you at the Closing Ceremony site. All participants must return to the Holding Area no later than 4:30 p.m. in order to join the victory walk.
Don't forget to continue the spirit of kindness we'll be building on the 3-Day for the Cure throughout and beyond the Closing Ceremony!
