Pounding the Pavement planned in Seymour

SEYMOUR - I rarely win anything ... but today I got an e-mail from Seymour Pink, Inc. founder Mary Deming, saying I had won a pink cowbell in a contest sponsored by her nonprofit organization.

 

I won it for being the last person to sign up Sunday for the second annual 5K Pounding the Pavement for Pink event on Oct. 5, in which I will be walking, not running, thank you very much.

Deming has been running a contest on the event's Facebook page for those who form a team or who register to be on a team. She has been giving away pink merchandise to lucky 5K participants. 

I am a member of Griffin Hospital's Circle of Friends support group for breast cancer survivors and will be walking with our team of the same name.


Come out and support Seymour Pink ~ Join the fight against breast cancer and participate in what Deming promises will be an "over the top" event. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm a pretty quiet person, but with this cowbell in hand on Oct. 5 I just may become a bit louder.
