Bald is IN
Over 475 people of all ages and backgrounds shaved their heads for children with cancer. A whopping $258,000 (and counting) was raised for childhood cancer research in 4 local events held at UC Davis Cancer Center, Roseville Sports Complex, Jamba Juice and Ruhkala Elementary. This event was hosted by the Keaton Raphael Memorial. For more information see www.ChildCancer.org.

Making a Splash for Breast Cancer
Sacramento residents can experience the new Raging Waters at Cal Expo Fairgrounds at a special price, all while benefiting women in their community, thanks to Raging Waters Sacramento. The water park has donated 3,500 single day tickets (each valued at $29.99) to the Sacramento Valley Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure to help fight breast cancer.

One hundred percent of the proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Sacramento Valley Affiliate. The park will open one weekend early to provide Komen Sacramento Race for the Cure participants with a special preview on Saturday, May 12th. Race participants will be granted special access as the race course ends near the newly refurbished park grounds. For more info on the Race for the Cure see komensacramento.org, and to find out about the new and improved Raging Waters, go to RagingWaters.com.
