Dear Colleagues,
The annual “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” Walk is coming up on Sunday, October 10, 2021!
For more than two decades, Making Strides Against Breast Cancer has united communities in the fight against
this deadly disease and funded breakthrough research, 24/7 support for breast cancer patients, and access to
lifesaving screenings. Today, Making Strides is the largest network of breast cancer events in the nation.
We welcome you to join us support the cause by joining the walk on October 10th. The walk is held at Coney
Island Boardwalk, Maimonides Park, 1904 Surf Ave Brooklyn, NY and registration starts at 8:00 AM.
If you would like to walk with us, please meet us at the corner of West 17th street and Surf Avenue at 8:00am.
When you arrive, you can call Mr. Fitzroy at (929) 258-6717.
Please wear your brightest pink! We hope to take pictures for this event. Please indicate at the bottom of this
interest form if you would permit us to take and use your image. We are excited to see Parkside in Pink! Please
let us know if you plan to attend the walk by replying to this email by October 8, 2021.
Thank you in advance for your support!
Sincerely,
Parkside Preparatory Academy
