Other Important Ways to be involved in Race for the Cure®:

Flowers for the Cure

Help decorate the Race stage and at the same time, pay tribute to a loved one who has battled breast cancer or a cancer supporter by purchasing a pink potted plant in celebration of a survivor, in memory of a loved one or in honor of a co-survivor. The pink flowers may be ordered for a $25 donation on-line only. The potted plants will be marked with your loved ones name as well as the name of the person who purchased the plant. At the conclusion of the Race, the potted plants may be picked up from the stage area. Order early as there is a limited supply of pink potted plants!

Tinkled Pink

Tinkled Pink is a great way to show your support for the West Michigan Race for the Cure and entertain participants while important business is being taken care of! For $75 you can sponsor a Port-A-Potty on Race Day. Celebrate your special someone or a breast cancer Survivor by decorating a port-a-potty at this year’s Race or use this opportunity to advertise your company or club to over 10,000 people. Be imaginative and decorate the inside and outside of your potty with photos, streamers, balloons, flowers, ads, bows, music or even toilet paper! The Tinkled Pink program is a unique, fun and affordable way to show your support at this year’s Race. Participants can vote for their favorite potties on Race Day for $1 per vote. Potties will be judged based on their creativity, theme, humor and originality. The top 3 royal flush prizes will be announced at the main stage during the Award Ceremony following the race.

For the safety of all participants, rollerblades and pets are discouraged from participating in this event. Thank you for your cooperation!
