Komen Race for the Cure

On Sunday, September 16th, the Komen Race for the Cure was held at the waterfront in Bangor. MSAD 48 had 55 participants take part in the event by completing the 5K walk or by "sleeping for the cure" in which members paid the registration fee but slept in the day of the walk. MSAD 48 is proud to be participants of this event as we honor many staff members that have battled breast cancer!
