The date is set! Mark your calendars to join us for Spin for the Cure on Saturday, October 9, 2010 at Xavier University's Cintas Center. In honor of the fifth annual event, this year has been deemed "Survival of the Five-Hour Ride!"
Save the date and join our fight against breast cancer through this unique five-hour spin and fund-raising event. For the fifth year in a row, Spin for the Cure will help raise awareness, hope and funds to benefit breast cancer victims and cancer research. Ride to the top of the highest hills and race down the other side – all for a worthy cause.
Since 2006, Spin for the Cure founder Vickie Magliano and fellow Cincinnatians have supported Susan G. Komen for the Cure Greater Cincinnati by doing what they love – Spinning®. The 2009 event raised over $28,000 and spotlighted three local Cincinnati breast cancer survivors – Karen, Heather and Angie.
Each year, thousands are diagnosed with breast cancer, and events like Spin for the Cure help provide essential funding needed for advancements in medical technology – helping patients receive the best care possible, empowering cancer victims and their families with hope and help, and most importantly, energizing science and continuing research to find a cure and end breast cancer forever.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced cyclist, solo participant or part of a team, volunteer or rider sponsor, make 2010 the year you do something to make a real difference in the lives of those fighting breast cancer. Make it the year you Spin for the Cure.
