San Jose Event Details



Date Saturday, October 31 Schedule Register and start walking from 8:00am - 10:00am	Location Arena Green, Guadalupe River Park Walk Five kilometers

Join the 2nd annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in San Jose. The 5 kilometer non-competitive walk begins and ends at the Arena Green and travels along the beautiful Guadalupe River Park trail and through downtown San Jose.

The American Cancer Society promises a day of hope, inspiration, and entertainment.

Hang out at the Main Stage. Event emcees Dr. Kim Mulvihill (CBS5) and Kevin Brown (KBLX) will provide constant commentary and humor. In addition, come listen to a number of speeches from the American Cancer Society leaders and members of your community.

Celebrate survivorship and hope. All participants are encouraged to stop by our Survivor and Friends tent to hear personal stories of hope. Survivors have the opportunity to share their own story of survivorship as well as receive a gift to acknowledge their courage and strength in their battle against breast cancer.

Children of all ages (and those adults that remain young at heart) are welcome at the Youth Against Breast Cancer tent. Volunteers provide games and activities for children and their parents that are both fun and educational.

Let your voice be heard by coming to the Hope Starts Here tent to learn about the advocacy and mission activities of the American Cancer Society and what you can do in this part of the fight against breast cancer.

Don't forget your Making Strides memorabilia. Visit the Making Strides Shop to purchase event t-shirts, hats, and other retail items.
