Race For The Cure NYC 2008


Unless you were out of town (or just plain out of it) you know that Mother Nature treated NYC to a brilliant day on Sunday, September 14th. Lucky for us The Greenwich Jewelers gals, along with some clients, friends and family members, were a part of the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in beautiful Central Park. It was a great day; there were thousands of runners and walkers, many other teams, even kids & pets that had come together for one great cause.

The Greenwich Jewelers 'Make Life Sparkle!' Team (pictured here) raised $3500 in donations with the support of generous clients, friends and family members. See the hot pink papers we are wearing in the picture? These were placards that proclaimed "I walk in celebration of/in memory of" and allowed us to walk in honor of someone whose life had been touched by breast cancer. I think we all were humbled by the strength and commitment of the survivors and supporters who out in full force on Sunday. It was also exciting to see 'Sex and the City' star Cynthia Nixon & channel 2 news anchor Maurice DuBois who were on hand for the opening ceremonies.

We are eagerly looking forward to participating in the 2009 Race For The Cure and hope we can convince YOU to walk with us. Thanks again for all the support!

Sparklingly yours,
Jennifer
