West County Walks for a Cure
Nearly 350 people gathered in West County this weekend to walk in support of cancer victims and survivors
In spite of the early rain and chilly weather, 350 residents of Wildwood, Manchester, Ballwin and other West County cities gathered at Lafayette High School Saturday to participate in the West County Walk.
Since 2009, the walk has gathered supporters of friends and family who have been affected by breast cancer. The walk is an alternative to downtown St. Louis' annual Race for the Cure.
"I'm so excited about today. Everything was just perfect," said Scott Sloyer, organizer of the West County Walk, which raised approximately $10,000 that would go toward the Susan G. Komen foundation. "The weather scared a few people earlier, but we still met our goal—and it turned out to be a beautiful day."
