 Walking For A Great Cause 

The 2nd Annual Memorial Cancer Walk organized by the Women's Committee of Local Lodge 811 went off without a hitch at noon on Saturday October 1st

Over 50 walkers consisting of members, coworkers, and family members held pink balloons while walking 2 mile route in memory of those who have battled the deadly disease of Breast Cancer.  Some walkers survivors themselves felt the walk was touching and meaningful seeing everyone come together for this cause.  This is the 2nd year women's committee members Jackie Golphin, Angela Jones and Sarah Monderoy have held walk.

General Secretary Treasurer  Dora Cervantes showed her support by walking with members participating in walk. Local lodge 2198 President Norma Ramirez stopped by  booth to see literature with information that was also available or members and their families.  To conclude walk pink balloons were released to honor the memory of those that have passed away by this deadly disease.

The Women's Committee mission is to raise awareness of important causes and promoting civic activism. Contact Jackie Golphin, Sarah Monderoy or Angela Jones to find out how you can help.
