CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- Head of the Hooch rowers raised over
$35,000 in the fight against breast cancer, Saturday at the
27th annual Head of the Hooch Regatta (www.HeadOfTheHooch.org)
on the Tennessee River
in Chattanooga, Tenn.
The two-day regatta featured two U.S. national team men’s eights, which set aside their red, white and blue in favor of pink uniforms and oar blades to support the fight against breast cancer. read more >> |
Statistically speaking, one out of every eight women you know will be diagnosed with breast cancer. That means in 2006 alone, more than 200,000 family members, friends, neighbors and co-workers will struggle to avoid becoming another statistic—one of the 40,000 women who die annually due to breast cancer. By hosting a regatta at your club or signing up for a race in your city, you will help raise funds to support the search for a cure. Join us! Sign up for a race. Host a regatta. Or simply learn more.
