9 more days to give to our Walk for Life team!

team page

Well, the deadline has passed for joining the bradwarthen.com Walk for Life team — I went this afternoon and picked up the T-shirts for the team.

BUT… that doesn’t mean you can’t still contribute to the effort. And you do want to contribute to the effort, right? As Bryan Caskey said to his friends, the question is, “Cancer: Are You For It or Against It?”

For that matter, if you contribute, you’re more than welcome to walk with the team. Assuming you’re into camaraderie, exercise and all.

Thanks to Bryan and Doug Ross and others (Bryan and Doug having raised more than $1,000 each), our team has now raised $2,724 toward our (new) $3,000 goal. For those of you who don’t know how to use a calculator, that means we have $276 to go.

Let’s not fall short.

To give, just go to this page and click on the “Give Now” button over on the right-hand side.

I’m also told that if you still want to walk, you can register as an individual — they’re just not taking any more team members.

Far as I’m concerned, if you contribute, you’re a team member, whatever the official record says. We’ll be proud to have you walk with us. Or not, if you prefer to give and sleep in that day. Either way. We just want your money.

    Here’s some info from Palmetto Health Foundation:

    IMPORTANT DATES FOR TEAMS:
    Online registration for TEAM MEMBERS is now closed. Note: anyone who misses this deadline may still register as an individual walker or runner.

    This year’s Team Packet Pick-Up Days will be Thursday, Sept. 26 from Noon – 6 p.m. and Friday, Sept. 27 from 8 a.m. – Noon. We’ll be set up in the back parking lot of Palmetto Health Foundation, which is located at 1600 Marion Street. The Foundation is the grey, two-story building located on the corner of Marion and Taylor Streets. Turn right from Taylor St into our back lot, where we will be set up under a tent and ready to distribute shirts, chips, bibs and special items to honor those who have battled breast cancer.

    IMPORTANT DATES FOR INDIVIDUALS:
    Individual registration for walkers and runners will close at 7 a.m. on Friday, October 4. Online fees for walkers and runners will increase by $5 on Wednesday, Sept. 25 at Noon.

    SHIRT PICK-UP FOR INDIVIDUAL WALKERS:
    Shirt pick-up for individual walkers will be available at Palmetto Health Foundation (1600 Marion St) from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. Thursday, October 3 and Friday, October 4. Shirt pick-up will also be available beginning at 7:30 a.m. on October 5 in the Registration Tent in Finlay Park.

    As I said, I’ve picked up the team shirts. But individuals signing up between now and next Friday can still get shirts…
