The Heather Ridley-Fleeman Race for HOPE

Win the Battle – Crush Colon Cancer
You are invited to get your rear in gear and participate in the second annual Heather Ridley-Fleeman Race for HOPE in memory of a great young lady, Heather Ridley-Fleeman who lost the battle at the young age of 28 to colon cancer. The 5k race, which will include a 1 mile family fun walk, will benefit HOPE, Inc. a local nonprofit dedicated to assisting cancer patients with financial and emotional support and to the development and promotion of cancer research right here in Northwest Arkansas. Heather, who was a member of the vendor community, was dedicated during her life to supporting agencies like HOPE that work to help cancer patients during treatment while at the same time looking to tomorrow by conducting state-of-the-art cancer research that is locally accessible. The race and walk will be held on May 6, 2006 at the old Bentonville Tiger Stadium. Activities will begin at 8:00 a.m. and registration will start at 6:30 a.m. Individual runners and walkers as well as teams are encouraged to participate. Sponsorships are still available.
