Now a permanent fixture on the pink calendar, the third Dove Pink Star Walk will
take place on Saturday 25th October 2008 beneath a starlit Sydney sky. In aid of
the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF), people from all ages and walks of
life will be encouraged to participate in the fun 5km walk. Proceeds help to fund
research for prevention and cure, whilst acknowledging the 2,500 women that die
of Breast Cancer each year in Australia.
The Dove Pink Star Walk kicks off at 8pm and for the first time, will begin at
Government House in the Royal Botanic Gardens. It then follows a beautiful scenic
route past the Opera House and Circular Quay, finishing at dazzling Darling
Harbour. Get there early and join us for a fun filled entertainment schedule.
Special guests and artists to be announced closer to the date.
All participants can do their bit to help; having the opportunity to be sponsored or
wearing something pink, such as a t-shirt, accessories or hat. In addition, you can
get into the theme of the breast cancer cause and wear a decorated pink bra
(on top of your clothing is ok too)! There will be prizes awarded on the night for the
best costumes and for those adopting the pink spirit, plus entertainment
throughout the evening to cheer you on until everyone is well over the finish line!
