Susan G. Komen Colorado's Snowshoe for the Cure is a unique event that raises funds to help provide breast cancer screening, treatment, and educational programs in our 22 county service area. Held on the pristine trails of the Frisco Nordic center, this fun and family friendly event includes a 3K, 5K, and Lil' Stomper Dash and is a one of a kind experience that brings together upwards of 1,500 participants to stomp out breast cancer.
We are recruiting for all volunteer positions including, but not limited to information booth, course marshal, set up and registration, water station, crowd control, education tent and much more.

Description
Since 1982, Komen has played a critical role in every major advance in the fight against breast cancer transforming how the world talks about and treats this disease and helping to turn millions of breast cancer patients into breast cancer survivors
- More early detection and effective treatment - Currently, about 70 percent of women 40 and older receive regular mammograms, the single most effective screening tool to find breast cancer early. Since 1990, early detection and effective treatment have resulted in a 33 percent decline in breast cancer mortality in the U.S.
- More hope - In 1980, the 5-year relative survival rate for women diagnosed with early stage breast cancer was about 74 percent. Today, that number is 98 percent.
- More research - The federal government now devotes more than $850 million each year to breast cancer research, treatment and prevention (compared to $30 million in 1982).
- More survivors - Currently, there are about 3 million breast cancers survivors, the largest group of cancer survivors in the U.S.
