Thousands to Participate in Avon Breast Cancer Walk


You may see a sea of pink in the city this weekend.


The 12th annual Avon Walk for Breast Cancer steps off later this morning.


Thousands of participants will be walking from Pier 84 to Randall’s Island and then back again. That’s a round trip of nearly 40 miles.


The walkers raise at least $ 1,800 for the Avon Foundation for Women. The proceeds are used for research, treatment, detection and prevention.


For more information you can go to avonwalk.org.
