Boynton residents can still register at mall for Race for the Cure

Although online registration expired Jan. 21 for the 2009 Susan G. Komen South Florida Race for the Cure, residents can still register for the race in person on scheduled days through Jan. 29 at malls and three retailers throughout Palm Beach County and on the race site Jan. 30 and 31.
The 18th annual race is Jan. 31 along Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach. Last year 21,000 participated and raised nearly $1.6 million.   For the first time, registration on the race site will be offered the day before the race, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Jan. 30 in Centennial Park on Flagler Drive between Evernia and Fern streets in West Palm Beach.
Race day registration opens at 6 a.m. on Race Day, Saturday, Jan. 31.   The Boynton Beach Mall at JC Penney will also have a registration event, 801 N. Congress Ave., from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Jan. 29.   For the latest updates, visit www.komensouthflorida.org or call Susan G. Komen South Florida at 561-514-3020.
Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever.
In 1982, that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and launched the global breast cancer movement.
