Race for the Cure 2011!!!

For the past 10 years or so, I have been participating in Race for the Cure in honor of the women I know who have survived Breast Cancer (My Gammie – 2 time survivor, Laura Farley, Cindi Griffin). After years of participating in Race for the Cure, I decided this year I wanted to be more involved, so I joined the Teams Committee!

I was in charge of getting as many corporate teams involved around the community! I really enjoyed being more involved this year and hope to be even more involved next year!!! The race went really well and we ended up with a total of 259 teams (about 120 corporate teams).

For the second year in a row, I was also Team Captain for Ericsson! Our team was a huge success this year! We were one of the race sponsors again this year and also raised over $7500, therefore our total contribution was close to $18,000.00!!! We also had 72 participants this year and 18 volunteers! I was so proud of our team and felt so incredibly blessed to work with such awesome individuals!

A few couples from our Sunday school class also formed a team and participated! It was very exciting to see all of them out at the race!!!

Ericsson Inc. TeamBlake, Mom, Ms. Dale, Jene', and IEricsson Booth! We had a photo wall at our booth this year and it was a big hit!

We also passed out Ericsson chapsticks, which people seemed to love!
