On Sunday, October 21^st Temple Shalom Walkers, organized by the temple’s Sisterhood, will be joining a “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” Walk-a-Thon.

The team welcomes women, men and children to walk with them to raise funds to help save lives from breast cancer.  Team members will ask friends and family to support their efforts with a donation. 

The 5K walk begins at 10:00 am at the Arnold Avenue Band Shell in Point Pleasant Beach preceded by an opening ceremony at 9:00 am and a 9:40 am warm-up. Team members may choose to walk the full 5K or shorter distances.  Participants walk at their own pace in a noncompetitive setting.

Temple Shalom Walkers is also looking for sponsors to support the fundraising efforts of either a specific participant or of the entire group.  Team members may register on-line.  Sponsors may also make their donations online. All donations benefit the American Cancer Society.

The address to register or to make a contribution is: http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR/MakingStridesAgainstBreastCancer/MSABCFY13EA?team_id=1225696&pg=team&fr_id=47310
