Spread the Word!

FREE FREE FREE!!!!

Now that we have your attention, we are asking for your help. In an effort to spread awareness - after all, that IS why we are walking - and raise some additional funds, we would like your help in spreading the word. For your participation, we will enter you in a drawing to win a pair Gopher Hockey Tickets for the upcoming season. We will also be drawing for a giveaway from A Royal Affair Studio. One lucky winner will have their choice of many lovely bracelets generously donated by A Royal Affair Studio.

So.......

First, the awareness part...

Age: a major factor

A woman's chance of getting breast cancer increases with age. According to the American Cancer Society your chance by your current age is:

20 years old - 1 in 1,837

30 years old - 1 in 234

40 years old - 1 in 70

50 years old - 1 in 40

60 years old - 1 in 28

70 years old - 1 in 26

Lifetime - 1 in 8

Breast Cancer is the most common cancer in women, but it can be successfully treated.

The key - early detection.

The American Cancer Society recommends:

Mammography - every year starting at age 40

Clinical Breast Exam - every 3 years between ages 20-39

Self Breast Exam - monthly beginning in your 20's

Have you been 'squeezed' lately?
