21st Annual Sue DeYoung/Judy Edger Memorial Breast Cancer 5K Walk/Run

To our friends in the Media, Below is a news release with details on this 21st Annual Sue DeYoung/Judy Edger Memorial Breast Cancer 5K Walk/Run in Charlevoix on May 9, 2015. Last year was the third year of the ?Wear Your Support? bra decorating contest and helped to draw extra spectators, publicity and awareness. All participants, women and men, are encouraged to decorate a bra and wear the decorated bra over their t-shirt or clothing during the event and businesses are also participating by decorating a bra and displaying it in their front windows. I have attached my picture of participants in bras from last year?s event that you can use. Monies raised this year benefit Charlevoix County?s Circle of Strength Foundation, to provide mammograms for women in need and the Health Department of Northwest Michigan, to be used for the free cervical screening program for Charlevoix County residents. We hope you can help us to get the word out on this important community event. Please feel free to call me with any details.
