You will also be invited to the Survivor Tent for a complimentary breakfast and participate in a special tribute at the Awards Ceremony following the Race.
Teams
Multiply your impact on the cause by forming a team for the Komen Race for the Cure. Bring together friends, family, co-workers, neighbors or club members to join the fight to end breast cancer. We suggest Teams consist of at least 10 walkers and/or competitive chip-timed runners. When you register your Team, you will have an opportunity to select a division (for example, business, friends & family, communities/neighborhoods etc.).
Volunteer
The success of the Komen Race depends heavily on the support we receive from volunteers in the months leading up to the Race and on Race Day. Click here to read more about Race day volunteer jobs.
