Fourth Annual Breast Cancer Snowshoe Fundraiser SOUTH BERWICK The Outlook Tavern at the Links will be hosting the Fourth Annual Breast Cancer Snowshoe Fundraiser on Saturday, January 28. Last year, 75 snowshoers took part, with the event raising over $8,000. Links employee and breast cancer sur vivor A nn Marie Sacca is taking part in the 2023 Komen New Hampshire Snowshoe event by hosting a fundraiser and snowshoe event at the Links at Outlook Golf Course, located at 310 Portland Street in South Berwick. Registration starts at noon, the event begins
at 1 p.m., and after-event activities start at 2 p.m. For $75, snowshoers will
walk the front nine holes, and enjoy an Italian-themed buffet and winter gift bag afterward.
A $35 ticket offers the buffet to those that do not wish to walk. 100% of the proceeds go to support the Komen helpline (1-877-GO-KOMEN, helpline@ komen.org), treatment assistance program, breakthrough research, advocacy, and support to patients. After the event, attendees can gather at the fire pits outside, or go inside to partake in live music by Keith Bowen, a cash bar, and raff les. So swap out those golf shoes for snowshoes or snow boots and help the fight against breast cancer! Sacca would like to en-
courage ticket purchases by January 14 in order to prepare accurately, but they will also be available after that, until sold out. Those unable to attend but who would still like to donate can do so on Annie’s personal page link at https://neweng land.info-komen.org/goto/ann mariesacca23. Anyone wishing to donate to Annie on a team level can do so at https://new england.info-komen.org/goto/ annie2023.
