Next Years Cancer Walk


Committee met on March 29 to discuss the Jan. 17, 2012 Cancer Walk in our park. Some areas discussed included:

All proceeds will stay in the Rio Grande Valley.

Walkers, bikers and anyone else wishing to contribute will receive a free tee shirt for a $20 donation. Both men & women are encouraged to participate.

Anyone may purchase a paper “mini-shirt” for a $5 donation. These will be posted in Friendship Hall. On this mini-shirt, it would be noted that the donation is “given by” and “in memory or support of" whoever the contributor names. You may purchase as many of these mini-shirts as you wish. We know cancer has affected everyone in our park in one way or another....and you may have more than one person you wish to honor.

If you wish to sign up for the walk (and free tee shirt) you may contact Mary Lou Benson by calling her at 956-532-9665 .. or by email at mlbendyb@gmail.com. Sizes of shirts that will be available are S-M-L-XL-XXL-XXXL. We'll be ordering shirts early in December in a variety of colors so if you have a color you prefer, please let Mary Lou know when you sign up. After the initial order we will order extra shirts but you would possibly not have as wide a choice of colors and/or sizes.

Questions may be addressed to any committee member .. Jan Philipp, Mary Lou Benson, Dianna Bruce, Rita Henningsen, Catherine Gibbs, Anita Madsen.
