October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  I’ve seen a few ads, if you purchase pink products, a part of the proceeds will be donated towards breast cancer, which is good, but if you want to be more pro-active for this cause, check out  http://www.cancer.org/docroot/ped/ped_20_BCA.asp

Today, evidently was the ‘Making Strides Against Breast Cancer’ 5k/3.1 walk at 9am which I totally missed – either because I didn’t realize it was so early in October, or it wasn’t publicized enough.  But either way, they have another one by the American Cancer Society called the Walk-n-Wag on October 31st 2009 where you can walk with your dog 🙂 check out the details if you’re interested: www.wakewalknwag.com
