Seymour Pink to hold virtual Pounding the Pavement for Pink run/walk this year


As Seymour Pink continues to monitor the re-opening plan for the state of CT, we have decided to proactively transform our annual Pounding the Pavement for Pink run/walk scheduled for October 3, 2020 to an entirely virtual event.

While Pounding the Pavement is our largest attended fundraiser, we feel this is the best course of action to ensure the safety and well-being of our participants, survivors, volunteers, and staff.

While we won't be participating together in person, we can be together in spirit, showing the strength of our community and the passion we have to FIGHT breast cancer no matter where you are.

This year's events will include our 9th annual 5K, our inaugural 10K and the first Pink Challenge. 

Stay tuned for more details.

Registration will open July 1.

DERBY - The second annual Derby's B.E.S.T. run/walk will be held Sept. 26 on the Greenway.

The fundraiser for Derby Public Schools is hosted by Walnut Hill Community Church of Derby.
Last year enough money was raised to fund nine projects created by Derby teachers at Irving and Bradley elementary schools, according to information on the event website.
