Default Walk for Life sponsors needed

Hi Everyone
I will be taking part in a WALK FOR LIFE "CARRERA POR LA VIDA- to raise
money for Cancer. This will be held on the 13th December.
We are starting at approx 11 am the walk between the Mediteranean Palace and
Tenerife Tropical Gardens Arona and then walk along the front for approx 3.5
Km to Plaza CC Saly Tien Adeje.
I am doing this in conjunction with Vianna Shows
At the start and finish we will have entertainment and also a raffle with
great prizes at the end.
All monies raised will go 50- 50 between AMETA Asociation Mujeres con
Cancer De Mama De Tenerife and AECC Asociation Espanola Contra Cancer.
If you would like to sponsor me (even 1 euro per kilometre!!) it would be
going to a very worthwile Charity.

This Charity is very close to my heart as my Father passed away 4yrs ago from this dreaded disease,
anyone willing to sponsor me please PM me

Default Re: Walk for Life sponsors needed (UPDATE)

Over 2,000 people took part in yesterday's Walk for Life and raised €8,400 which will be divided between a number of cancer organisations.

- The pink tide swept through the streets of Adeje and Arona on a sunny Sunday morning, with councillors from both boroughs taking part in the walk beside organiser Brigitte Gypen and members of the cancer associations represented.

A number of swimmers also completed the same stretch in the sea, and there was music and singing and dancing along the way, as well as lots of fun, give aways and an important raising of awareness of breast and other forms of cancer.



the entertainment line up before the walk was
1st Jesse Garon ( myself)
2nd Suzy Q
3rd Rick Porter
well done Suzy & Rick both did excellent shows, I also did the walk along with my wife and thousands of others, great atmosphere, people travelled from all over the island to do the walk and there was also some people from La Gomera there as well, excellent day and great amount raised, only black spot on the day was one gentleman had his wallet stolen while watching the entertainment at the end of the walk, ( there are some heartless *******s out there.)

I know there were TV crews there filming at the start does anyone have any idea where i might be able to get a copy of this from, cheers Jesse.

there was three different TV companies filming, one was TVE, another one again had three letters in the name but cant think of it I know it ended with a k, the last one I couldnt make out a name on the cameras but would like to get a copy as the Camera man did quite a lot of filming of all the artists.

HERE are the Canarian TV channels. Why not just send them all a quick email? They might have a DVD you can buy or download.

Nice one Jesse. Well done.

Also close to my heart. My mother died of cancer of the stomach at the age of 42.
