They will hide 6 eggs in 6 different places around the county and we have to go find them.  There will be multiple eggs at each location but your team can only take one egg at each place.  The eggs are super glued closed so if they are broken you forfeit the prize inside. (if there was one)   One {1} egg at each location will have a number which is a prize.  So you may find all 6 locations and get back with 6 eggs but still miss out which is just all part of the fun If you are interested meet at 1:00pm at the Timberline Church south parking lot in Fort Collins.  Riders will leave by 1:15 and must be back no later than 4:00  (disqualified if late)  All the "found" eggs will then be opened and  prizes handed out to those lucky ones. This is all about having some fun and fellowship with others that may not have plans for Easter.  If people want to then go have dinner together or ice cream great!   That is was this event is all about; being together\, having fun and meeting fellow riders.

Buy Tickets\, Tables and Donations: Register Now For more information on sponsorships\, corporate tables or volunteer opportunities\, contact Contact melissa@hopelives.org   What We Do Every woman diagnosed with breast cancer deserves the most thorough care she can get\, no matter her age\, status\, or severity of her diagnosis. Therefore\, our mission is to provide those touched by breast cancer the support\, knowledge\, and care needed to complement their medical treatment. We fulfill this mission by paying for complementary care services and by educating all residents of our community about the many available avenues of cancer support. Through our Complementary Care Program\, we bring the resources of over 30 cancer-related service and support providers straight to women with breast cancer. We ensure that these women can receive post-diagnosis support and care such as much-needed complementary care\, lifestyle support such as housecleaning\, and emotional support such as family and couples counseling. We are unique in that we focus on the post-diagnosis stage of a woman's journey through breast cancer. There are many well-established organizations in the Fort Collins and Loveland communities that provide ongoing breast health and breast cancer diagnosis information and services. However\, we are the only charitable organization in Larimer County focused on providing breast cancer patients complementary care and lifestyle support for the duration of their treatment.

Because of your support\, we are creating a world where cancer can't claim another year of anyone's life. You are helping create a world with less cancer and more birthdays! What Is Relay? Overnight relay-style event Teams of people camp out around a track Members of each team take turns walking around the track for the duration of the event Food\, games and activities provide entertainment and fundraising opportunities Family-friendly environment for the entire community Because it’s a Relay\, you’re not required to be there the entire time…but it’s so fun\, you’ll probably find it hard to leave! Sign up for Relay by finding an event in your area. >> [WINDSOR INFO] - July 27th & 28th What Happens at a Relay Event There are many moments that create the Relay experience. Specific details vary by event. But the key moments that all events share in common are listed below: Survivors Lap Relay starts with a Survivors Lap – an inspirational time when survivors are invited to circle the track together and help everyone celebrate the victories we’ve achieved over cancer. We also recognize and celebrate caregivers at Relay For Life. These individuals give their time\, love\, and support to friends\, family\, neighbors\, and coworkers who face cancer. Luminaria Ceremony After dark\, we honor people who have been touched by cancer and remember loved ones lost to the disease during the Luminaria Ceremony. Candles are lit inside bags filled with sand\, each one bearing the name of a person touched by cancer\, and participants often walk a lap in silence. Learn More » Fight Back Ceremony Last\, there is a Fight Back Ceremony\, where we make a personal commitment to save lives by taking up the fight against cancer. That personal commitment may be to do something as simple as getting a screening test\, quitting smoking\, or talking to elected officials about cancer. By taking action\, people are personally taking steps to save lives and fight back against a disease that takes too much. History of Relay One person can make a difference. Nowhere is that more evident than with the story of the American Cancer Society Relay For Life\, which began in Tacoma\, Washington. In the mid-1980s\, Dr. Gordy Klatt\, a Tacoma colorectal surgeon\, wanted to enhance the income of his local American Cancer Society office and to show support for all of his patients who had battled cancer. He decided to personally raise money for the fight by doing something he enjoyed – running marathons. In May 1985\, Dr. Klatt spent a grueling 24 hours circling the track at Baker Stadium at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma. He ran for more than 83 miles. That first year\, nearly 300 of Dr. Klatt's friends\, family\, and patients watched as he ran and walked the course. Throughout the night\, friends donated $25 to run or walk with Dr. Klatt for 30 minutes. His efforts raised $27\,000 to fight cancer. While circling the track those 24 hours\, Dr. Klatt thought about how others could take part in his mission to fight cancer. He envisioned a 24-hour team relay event that could raise more money to fight cancer. Over the next few months\, he pulled together a small committee to plan the first team relay event\, known as the City of Destiny Classic 24-Hour Run Against Cancer. In 1986\, with the help of Pat Flynn – now known as the “Mother of Relay” – 19 teams took part in the first team Relay event on the track at the historic Stadium Bowl and raised $33\,000. An indescribable spirit prevailed at the track and in the tents that dotted the infield.

[caption id="attachment_154826" align="aligncenter" width="630"] Getty Images; TSM[/caption] Tough Enough to Wear Pink Info   Since inception (Spring 2010) we have helped 63 women. Grant dollars used to date:  $12\,437.46 Services provided under the grant:  screening mammograms\, diagnostic mammograms and ultrasounds\, diagnostic breast biopsies\, breast biopsy pathology\, lymphedema sleeves\, wound care after breast surgery Referrals for the grant come from the Loveland Community Health Center for uninsured and underinsured women to access screenings and diagnostics. Many women have delayed their screenings and diagnostics due to financial worries.  Sixteen of the 63 women had suspicious findings on screenings and needed further testing.  Happily\, none of these were diagnosed with cancer. Referrals for lymphedema sleeves come from McKee physical therapists who work with women who have painful arm swelling due to breast surgery\, lymph node removal\, and radiation treatments. Women needing financial help to obtain the lymphedema sleeves are low income with Medicare insurance which does not pay for these supplies. The sleeves reduce swelling and pain and enable the women to be more active. As more and more state and grant programs reduce funding for breast services and then as more patients delay screenings and treatment\, being able to help patients access care through the Tough Enough to Wear Pink funds is truly a gift for our community members.

The Next Door restaurant adjacent to the Rialto will be hosting an after-party for all attendees. "Doctored" is director Bobby Sheehan and producer Jeff Hays' entry into the emerging genre of health focused feature documentaries and follows both patients and health care providers struggling within a broken health care system. The movie begins with the AMA's attack on their non-drug providing rivals\, the chiropractic profession. Interviews and historical footage expose the AMA's clandestine campaign to eliminate chiropractic services. Sheehan uses this story\, along with several others\, to show that almost all areas of Western healthcare have been "doctored" to benefit the medical and pharmaceutical interests. The film also features success stories from world-class athletes\, interviews with a wide variety doctors and researchers\, as well as stories of normal\, everyday people fighting to do what’s right and having to choose between the drug-based standard of care or a healthier\, less accepted\, alternative. Sheehan sheds light on this "doctored" system and opens a conversation on real solutions. Doctored has premiered in larger metropolitan areas but this is the first public showing of the film in Colorado. “This is a perfect opportunity to advocate for the people of Northern Colorado\,” said Dr. Brian Flemming\, President of the NoCo EPOC chapter. “There are really good reasons to attend this film. People need to understand the healthcare landscape to make the best decisions for themselves and their family. This film demonstrates the validity of chiropractic as a viable alternative.” This event is open to the public. Tickets are available through participating local doctors or by calling 970.226.6556.
