You sip and nosh, we’ll walk 60 miles, and together we’ll help fight breast cancer – how great is that?

Jaime, Kate, Kirby and Sara have pledged not only to walk 60 miles over three hot August days, but also to raise a total of $8,800. The goal is in sight and we’re throwing a party to help us get the final few steps to the start line.

You’ll be in the pink as you sample complimentary treats and sip your happy hour libation of choice (no-host bar). We’ll all be in the pink when you bring the green to buy raffle tickets for the dozens of special prizes supportive merchants have donated for the cause!

The Breast Cancer 3 Day walk raises millions of dollars each year to fund critical breast cancer research and community outreach programs. Seattle’s walk is one of 12 this year, country-wide. 85% of the funds you donate go to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and 15% benefit the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund.

If you’ve already donated, thank you! Please come enjoy some tasty tidbits as a thank you for your support! If you’ve been meaning to donate, here’s your chance to do it and have a great time, too.
