Snowshoe for the Cure, Frisco

The name may have changed, but Snowshoe for the Cure is still the same funky intersection of pink, happy and hope you have become used to over the years. Susan G. Komen Colorado has partnered with the Town of Frisco’s Nordic Center to continue the tradition of snowshoe fun and community spirit which has raised over 1 million dollars since its inception to fight breast cancer. Susan G. Komen Colorado has always been a partner of this event, but for the 2nd year they are bringing their own passion and considerable love of events to Frisco as a full-fledged event organizer.

Friday, March 3, 2017 from 5:00pm – 8:00pm

Join us for Frisco’s Pink Party for packet pick-up and a welcome to Frisco reception. Snowshoe for the Cure participants are welcome to experience the zany pinkness and community spirit that Frisco is known for when they pick up their race bibs, race goody bags, play games to win prizes, eat some delicious appetizers, and get the chance to see what Frisco has to offer at the pink dappled merchant trunk show. Coors and Coyote Gold are reported to be making an adult beverage appearance.
