Undy Run/Walk Event
A big thanks to everyone who supported Beers 4 Rears and the Undy Run/Walk event. This is the 3rd year we have participated in the Undy Run/Walk event. Our team name is the Healthy Hiney. The Undy Run/Walk took place at City Park in Denver on June 27th. It was great to see the large numbers of people who support Colon Cancer Awareness. All funds raised go to the Colon Cancer Alliance. For more information on what the proceeds are used for, please visit: Why we fundraise
Hope to see even more people out next year!
We had a great time at the Undy Run/Walk in Denver!
