Race for the Cure

On Saturday, September 17, Forsythe Park was filled with runners and walkers outfitted in their favorite pink gear to show support and participate in the Northeast Louisiana Susuan G. Komen Race for the Cure. Team members and individuals came out in full force wearing everything from tutus to pink wigs to honor and remember those who are fighting or have beat breast cancer. After the race, participants were able to visit sponor tents, display booths and team tables while awards and trophies were presented to racers. The Northeast Louisiana Affiliate of Susuan G Komen are able, through the help of rundraising events like the race, to better serve those in need and provide more effective education, screening and support services.
