ABOUT SKATE THE LAKE

Boarding for Breast Cancer (B4BC) is comin' in hot for the 15th Annual Skate the Lake, a 28-mile skate-bike-roll marathon that promotes an active lifestyle while raising funds for Boarding For Breast Cancer (B4BC)'s education, prevention and survivorship programs. Join us for a community gathering kick-off party at Commons Beach on Friday, August 16, and then skate, bike, blade, or rollerskate with B4BC on August 17th!

SQUAW VALLEY DROP IN

For those looking for a smaller commitment, we will once again have a drop in at the final hydration station at Squaw Valley. Riders can join in for the last seven miles of the marathon from the resort to Commons Beach.

We thank you so much for your generosity and willingness to donate to our cause. Feel good knowing that your donation makes an impact on our various education and outreach + survivorship support programs. Each dollar donated goes towards reaching a young woman in hopes of preventing breast cancer, or supporting those who have been affected.

Boarding for Breast Cancer (B4BC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit foundation that advocates early detection and a healthy, active, and sustainable lifestyle as the best means for breast cancer prevention.

We are on the road nearly ten months out of the year providing one-on-one peer education and valuable information to hundreds of thousands of young people. We share the simple message that Early Detection + Healthy, Active Lifestyle = Best Prevention. Through B4BC's Chasing Sunshine Project and survivorship programs, we hope to inspire, empower, and support young women and those affected by cancer.
