On Saturday, October 2nd, North Hills is hosting a 5k for the fight against breast cancer. The motto: making strides toward a world with more birthdays. I hope the majority of our blog readers have had the pleasure of meeting Susan, one of BeyondBlue's owners. You can find her here on the weekends--usually moving around heavy furniture and ladders that are three times her size. Susan is quite the trooper and also a breast cancer survivor. Ironically, her birthday falls on the day of the 5k. We will be celebrating Susan's birthday while raising money in hopes that other survivors will be able to enjoy many more birthdays with loved ones. Here is a picture from last year's event.
We encourage participants to stop by the store post-walk to enjoy some refreshing *pink* lemonade and mini-cupcakes to wish our wonderful owner a "happy birthday" and to also thank the walkers for their time and devotion to the cause. We are accepting $1 donations for the American Cancer Society.
