Summer Fun

Skate the Lake Virtually

Boarding for Breast Cancer announces the 16 th annual Skate the Lake event on Aug 29. In light of COVID-19, participants near and far can join virtually in the fun that Skate the Lake is known for. Choose a local trail, path or sidewalk to serve as the setting for the push to fundraise and raise awareness.

Join in the efforts of reaching a fundraising goal of $30,000 for education, prevention and survivorship programs by creating a fundraising page. Each participant is required to raise a minimum of $25. After that, the more a person raises, the better the prize.

Virtual participation will be celebrated and highlighted on @B4BC’s Instagram story through shared tags #push4b4bc and #skatethelake. Swag bags and additional enticements will be rewarded to keep the stoke alive regardless of location.

B4BC is a nonprofi t organization that advocates for early detection and a healthy, active and conscious lifestyle as the best means of breast cancer prevention. | b4bc.org
