The 2019 Yreka Breast Cancer Walk and Run will be held at Upper Greenhorn Park this year! This event is to raise awareness of the local mammogram fund at Fairchild Medical Center as well as raise money for a local resident. Our local recipient of donations will be LaniMarie Bonds. There is a 2 mile walk, it will be the nice, easy route around Greenhorn Reservoir, should be beautiful! The 5 mile Run option will be a mile around Greenhorn reservoir then onto Miners Trail over to Big Ditch Trail until the water tower, heading back on those trails (3 mile total) and then the final mile around the Reservoir, **5 miles around the Reservoir is an option as well** There is a $5 discount per person, of groups of 4 or more. Shirts are included with registration until October 1st, after that date you may inquire if we have any left after registration. There is an option for Kids 12 and Under, this is to get them entered for a prize not a requirement for them to participate.
This is a very fun event, we have music and refreshments and this year we will have Kristin Langford, a professional photographer, there to take pictures. There will be categories to win additional prizes, stay tuned on our Facebook page for specifics. Weather permitting we will have a drone also getting footage of our event and a group aerial photo of all of the participants and volunteers in the shape of a ribbon.
Categories to win a prize are:
1. Most Senior Registered Walker
2. Youngest Registered Walker
3. Most PINK Participant
4. Wackiest Outfit
5. Largest Group
Thank you for all of your support!
