Komen Columbus Race for the Cure®
Every Komen Columbus Race for the Cure® is a celebration of Survivors and an opportunity to remember those we have lost to this terrible disease.
Survivorpalooza: By definition a lollapalooza is something outstanding of its kind, and our Survivorpalooza seeks to honor our outstanding Survivors. This area at our Race for the Cure® features special activities to thank, provide fellowship for, relax, pamper and surprise our Survivors. Watch for Survivor testimonials, raffles, special pink hats, gift bags, entertainment, mini spa services and so much more.
Survivor Celebration and Awards Ceremony: One of the most inspirational moments of Race Day is the Survivor Celebration and Awards ceremony.
Survivor T-Shirts: There is no greater inspiration for a breast cancer Survivor than to be a part of the sea of pink at the Komen Columbus Race for the Cure®! Be sure to check the Survivor box on your Race entry form to get your complimentary pink t-shirt.
Survivor Pink Hats: Breast cancer Survivors who wish to be recognized may pick up complimentary pink caps at the Survivor Area and in the registration area on Race Day.
“In Celebration Of” & “In Memory Of” Back Signs: We invite all Race participants to recognize those special people in their lives who have been touched by breast cancer. “In Memory Of” and “In Celebration Of” back signs will be available at the Survivor Tent and the registration area on Race Day. Take this opportunity to celebrate and honor those we love who have faced the challenges of breast cancer.
Co-Survivor Program
As a breast cancer Survivor, you know the importance of a support system better than anyone. You probably have Co-Survivors – family, friends, doctors or colleagues – who have been sources of support and inspiration during your journey, from diagnosis to treatment.
In 2004, the Komen Foundation launched a campaign to honor Co-Survivors. Look for elements of the Co-Survivor program, such as pink-and-white ribbons and special stickers, at the Komen Columbus Race for the Cure® and other Komen Columbus events.
