A call for UTMB's Support Staff Professionals to help and support the
“Celebration of Life”
D’Feet Breast Cancer, Inc. Run or Walk to Fight Breast Center – Saturday 20
October 2007
Volunteer, Walk or Run
Volunteers are still needed for the event. Volunteers begin their day at
5:45am on site at Moody Gardens. Volunteers are responsible for a multitude of
tasks, from cheering the children on their 1k kids run, to signing up new
registrants, showing off the D’Feet merchandise in the merchandise tent, feeding
the hungry walkers and runners, participating the children’s party and wrangling
the crowds surrounding the birds prior to flight. The volunteer
coordinator needs to hear from you by the end of the week if you want to
volunteer. Contact her at
dfeetvolunteers@yahoo.com
or by calling 409 771-6332.

up today to run or walk. Early-registration runs through Oct. 10. Gather your
friends together and form a team for the event! If a group of 5–8 people
registers as a team before the early deadline, you’ll receive a free color group
photo at the event. Door prizes are among the new offerings this year.
Registration begins at 6:30 a.m. and activities will continue through the
morning. For additional details or to register for the 5K walk that goes through

2007 ‘Celebration of Life' - Oct. 20
INVITATION TO BREAST CANCER SURVIVORS
Please bring your family and friends and join us as we celebrate life in
your honor. Opening events will begin at 8:00am. There will be times of
tribute and wonderful fun events for all ages. As a survivor you are invited
to visit the Sara P. Rose Breast Cancer Survivor Hospitality Tent. This is a
place to relax and visit with other survivors. American National Insurance
Company and Sisters Three Florist have gifts for you. Since D’Feet is an all
volunteer organization, we try to use every penny wisely. When you visit,
give us your email address and your name will be entered in a drawing for
gifts. These addresses will enable us to send the newsletter for survivors
via email. Because you ARE a survivor your voice is valuable in helping
women understand the importance of early detection of breast cancer. Will
you please join us? Call 409-771-5574 or visit
www.dfeetbreastcancer.com.
Visit the hospitality tent anytime before noon. It will be a pleasure to
meet you.
