Save the Date! Breakaway from Cancer, April 30, 2011
Dana Point, CA. Attention cancer patients, caregivers, doctors and sports fans: Have we got a weekend for you!
The Dana Point Community Cycling Foundation (DPCCF) is pleased to invite you to join us celebrate life, family, friends and fitness on April 30, 2011 at a cancer fundraiser at the Dana Point Yacht Club.
The evening will include food, beverages, a silent auction and a roster of inspiring cancer survivors, physicians, professional bike racers and advocates. The doors open at 6 pm and close around 8 pm. The Dana Point Yacht Club is located on the island in the breathtakingly beautiful Dana Point Harbor.
All proceeds from the gala will be donated to Amgen's Breakaway from Cancer initiative, the Pacific Meso Center and the DPCCF.
The fun and festivities continue the next day, Sunday, May 1, 2011 when thousands of bike racers of all ages, families, fans and friends will take to the clean streets of downtown Dana Point for the 5th Annual Pro-Am Breakaway from Cancer Dana Point Grand Prix.
The day will feature non-stop highlights, including the always action-packed kids races, the men's pro race and, for the first time, the Breakaway Walk, in which cancer survivors and caregivers are invited to parade down the finish stretch of the race course. Bring your cameras!
Please join us. This will be an unforgettable experience that will combine sport and charity. On Saturday night, raise a toast to more and better life as we watch the sun dip down over the Pacific Ocean. On Sunday, put on your game face, whether it's to race your bike, walk with your chest out and chin up, or simply to spectate and support worthy charities.
