An overwhelming number of viewers, friends, and family have turned out to support Heather'sTeam, not only in central Ohio, but stretching as far as the state of Wisconsin.
On Saturday, more than 6,100 members of Heather's team will sport their pink wigs and HeatherT-shirts, in the annual Komen Columbus Race for the Cure.
Due to the large number of registrants, Komen Columbus has run out of bib numbers for new raceregistrants. However, if you would still like to support Heather's Team, you can stillpurchase a wig or t-shirt (for $5 each), while supplies last. Inventory is going fast, so actquickly.
