Brett Robert (aka Beretta), SFPK’s North Bay Area Rep, is leading the charge for an upcoming charity event - the Susan G. Komen “Race for the Cure” 5K run - to increase awareness and earn donations for breast cancer research. This is a very important topic that is near and dear to quite a few of our member’s hearts, and we would love to have the community’s support!
The Race for the Cure will be held on Saturday, May 9th, 2009 at CalExpo in Sacramento. SF Parkour will have a team running the race, if you’re interested in participating or sponsoring a runner, here’s how you can help:
1) Join our Team
Click here to join our team, collect donations on your own, and run! Follow the link near the top that says “Join Our Team.” Note to join the team you have to register to enter the race (Adult - Non-Timed) which is $35.
2) Donate to the Team or an Individual
