Puppy Up! Walk Denver 2011

Hello!

I would like to say thank you for making The Puppy Up! Fort Collins Walk a huge success last year. Because of you, Fort Collins was the number one fundraiser in the country and we had the privilege of having Luke, Hudson and Murphy walk with us. This year The Puppy Up! Walk is going to be held in Denver. I would like to invite you to join us at The Puppy Up! Denver Walk at Stapleton Central Park in Denver on Nov. 6. The proceeds we raise will benefit 2 Million Dogs and lead to improvements in cancer treatments for people and pets with cancer. 2 Million Dogs is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization committed to discovering the links between canine and human cancers and their causes through comparative oncology research.

The Puppy Up! Denver Walk will begin with an opening ceremony that is followed by a 2 mile walk. At the conclusion of the walk, we will have human and canine entertainment, prizes, contests, vendor booths and more. You can stay informed about the exciting developments by liking The First Puppy Up! Denver Walk 2011 on facebook and by following PuppyUpDenver on twitter.

We would also like to encourage you to SIGN UP BEFORE MIDNIGHT EST ON OCT. 22. Luke , Hudson and his new puppy, Indy, wil be walking in the city that has raised the most money by that time. ( For those of you who don't know, the 2 Million Dogs organization suffered a great loss when Murphy lost his battle with nasal cancer in June of this year. )

A CANCER-FREE WORLD STARTS WITH ONE MILE, ONE DOG AT A TIME.
