I am looking for others within the pageant industry (reigning queens, former queens, pageant directors, staff, contestants, anyone that is interested really) that would like to join my team to walk in the 3-Day Breast Cancer walk in San Diego, CA November 21-23, 2008. It is a 60 mile walk done over the course of 3 days.  You do NOT have to live in California to participate!  One of our team members is flying in from NY and I know of someone participating on another team for this walk that is flying in from GERMANY!

I know a couple of people that did it last year, and while it is certainly very hard work, it is also very rewarding as you walk 60 miles side-by-side with cancer survivors and even those currently undergoing treatment.  Let's have some fun and come together for a great cause! 

Our team name is Pageantry United and you can view more information by clicking here. I will be using this website to document our journey before and during the walk as well as to thank our sponsors.  Who knows, maybe this will expand into other examples of "Pageantry United"?  Please do not let the fundraising minimum stop you from joining us.  Raising money for Breast Cancer is FAR easier than trying to gain sponsorship for a pageant.  People WILL donate if you tell them what you are doing, and I will be helping everyone with their fundraising ideas as well.

You may be thinking, “Why should I?” More importantly, why shouldn’t you? Without a cure, 1 in 8 American women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. This is our opportunity to do something about it. Together, we can. I promise to do all I can to help you train, fundraise and prepare for this amazing journey. And we’ll have a lot of fun along the way!

Let me know if you want more info or are interested in participating!

I am also looking for people & businesses willing to sponsor those of us that sign up for the walk either financially or through items that we will need for the walk.  Details about sponsorship can be found by clicking here. To make a monetary donation, please click here.
