"Be part of a day of inspiration and hope, and help support the fight against pancreatic cancer."
Yes please! While I've been a part of the Central Florida PurpleStride the past three years (two of which as the Affiliate Coordinator), I've never participated in another area's event. So I was ELATED to be able to walk with TEAM MINUS in PurpleStride Lake Area 2012. The even took place at Prien Lake Park in Lake Charles, Louisiana, which is a beautiful area for such a walk (though a little on the small side and parking was a nightmare!). Just like past PurpleStrides, all proceeds benefited the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. It was a fun morning with family and friends as we celebrated my PawPaw, Minus J. Leleaux, and all the many people who are currently battling this horrific cancer (or have lost their lives to it). Lots of fun photos to share from this one! It was a great experience for me to see how another group does this event... learned lots and had a ball!
