WHAT A WEEKEND!!

Weekend to End Women’s Cancer – June 5th – 6th, 2010

WHAT A WEEKEND!!! – Where does one start? Let’s start with the money!

$2.1 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!  For this event!  $11.4 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!  Since 2006! – give your self a pat on the back!  What a happy dance we can do on this! Speaking of happy dances – we saw lots of happy dances crossing the finish line on Sunday.
Yes, it had to happen – it rained on our parade – but did it dampen our spirits? – Not a chance!  Cancer doesn’t stop on a rainy day and neither will we!

To ALL of the volunteers – thank you, thank you and thank you! – what an incredible job you did!  Your smiles warmed us, encouraged us and cheered us on as we passed you on our way to the finish line.  You energized us.

To ALL of the new walkers!  Thank you for signing up to make a difference.  For us who have been ‘around the block’ a couple of times, seeing the excitement and emotion of the faces of the 1st time walkers during the opening ceremonies, allowed us to relieve the experience again all over again.  Seeing the incredible sense of accomplishment, and feelings of euphoria at the end of day 2.

To ALL of the repeat walkers! And incredible thank you!  Thank you for continuing to find new ways to fundraise and raise your $2,000.

To ALL of the survivors who walked – THANK YOU, for being our strength, our encouragement and our hope and for not giving up the fight. 

How can we not mention the Shoppers Drug Mart tent? – OMG!!! Those comfy sofas and hand cream?!!!  OMG!!! Heaven!!!.

Thank you to Saving our Ta-Ta’s walkers and crew – you are awesome!  On Sunday our team waited at the last grab ‘n go so we could walk in together.  As tired as we were, when we banded together to walk that last 1.6KM the energy we had walking together was simply amazing.  I felt like we could conquer the world. 

If YOU want to experience the best weekend ever, to have fun, to make new friends, reconnect with old ones and to make a difference – sign up NOW for the 2011 Weekend to End Women’s Cancers!. It will be a decision that you won’t regret.
