The American Cancer Society’s annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K walk is 9 a.m. Oct. 26 at Village Baptist Church on Matthews Boulevard in Destin. Registration begins at 8 a.m.
The success of Making Strides events depends on people who commit to raising money, the people who donate to them and sponsors. Members of any group can form teams or walk as individuals. Organizations or businesses can sponsor teams of walkers.
Last year, more than 3,000 people participated in teams or as individuals for the walk along Scenic Highway 98 and raised more than $122,000.
Registration is free at www.makingstrideswalk.org/emeraldcoast. Email Team Development Chair Angie Harder at harder.angie@gmail.com or Event Chair Nancy Brown at jbrown464@cox.net.
