other ways to volunteer for Komen

3 ways to help out:
*Pasta Party needs to more silent auction items.
*Fitness Program will have a meeting of leaders on August 25.
170 are currently registered to participate. Kick-off is September 7.
*Survivor Luncheon is looking for door prizes.

Other activities:
*Three Miles of Men has been getting lot of questions. They can also be followed on Facebook and Twitter. 148 are presently registered for Three Miles of Men. They think this weekend at Dickey-Stephens Park will be a great opportunity to recruit more men to register. Anthony Lucas will be there part of the time.Registration reported that the bibs are in. They will be set up to register at the Travelers games this weekend. Race Space will be in Pleasant Ridge Town Center beginning October 2. 2600 are now registered.
*Skate for the Cure is September 13 from 1-4 with the ice show at 2:30 featuring Steven Evans, Novice Silver Medalist US Championship. This should be a great show.
*We have teamed up with Premium Refreshment (formerly Clear Mountain Water) to bring you Coffee for the Cure, our very own coffee. Bags will be $10 and will be sold in various retail outlets and at the Boutique. It should be ready by October 2. There will also be opportunities for tastings in various locations--definitely at the Pasta Party, Race, Survivor Breakfast and Survivor Luncheon.
*Put a Fork in It has 36 restaurants lined up to participate and is negotiating with several others. This list can be found online at www.komenarkansas.org and clicking on Komen Race for the Cure, Race Information and Put a Fork in It. Posted by Jill at Three Miles of Men
