The Woodlands, Texas (August 13, 2012):
Are you looking for a fun family event that keeps
you on your toes? Grab your favorite pair of
heels and race on down to Market Street!
The Breast Cancer Charities of America
(BCCA) is hosting the 3rd Annual Stiletto Sprint
sponsored
by
ClearChoice
Orthodontic
Associates at Market Street on Saturday,
September 15, 2012. What is a Stiletto Sprint
you might ask? It’s a fun, entertaining and a
short distance sprint in high heels to fight against breast cancer! Everyone---men, women, and
kids are welcome to join in and participate in the races.
“We are really excited to bring the Stiletto Sprint back to Market Street again this year,” says
BCCA Executive Director Erica Tullis. “This is such a fun family event. We have a Kids Zone for
the kids to have hands on fun sponsored by Chick-fil-A and a great Food Tent with free food for
all participants from Rico’s. It’s a morning of family fun you’re not going to want to miss!”
Event activities include a Women’s Stiletto Sprint, the ever entertaining Men’s Stiletto Sprint,
a non-competitive “Divas in Training” Sneaker Sprint for girls under 12, a non-competitive
Sneaker Sprint for boys under 12, and a Co-Ed Sneaker Sprint for adults not quite ready to
brace sprinting in 3” heels.
Check in begins at 8:00am, and the races begin at 9:00am. Funds raised will benefit the Help
Now Fund (an emergency financial assistance program that helps with rent and utilities of those
who are going through breast cancer). And to top of the morning, there is a fantastic and
outrageous costume contest for best-dressed male and female, so remember to wear your pink
and go all out!
Winners of the race receive hundreds of dollars worth of FANTASTIC prizes donated by
Tiffany & Co., Tommy Bahama, Crescent Moon Wine Bar, Fleet Feet and Langford Market.
