The Blue Cure Foundation is non-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness and advocating research to advance prostate cancer treatment and prevention. This September, commemorated as National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, Blue Cure and the City of Houston present the Blue Cure Night Run this Saturday, September 27, 2014, at Sam Houston Park. Including 5k runs for children and adults, as well as an entertaining Zumba event to wind down afterwards, the Blue Care Night Run is a healthy and charitable way for the whole family to have fun.
What is It?
Presented by Fred & Mabel R. Parks Foundation, the Blue Cure Night Run will illuminate downtown Houston as you walk or run the 5k path along Allen Parkway that starts and ends at Sam Houston Park. On the return leg back through downtown, you’ll see City Hall illuminated in blue light as a beacon to Prostate Cancer Awareness.
