Climb for the Cure 2009

? This is cool - an event hosted by my friends brother…

My name is Eric Malehorn - This July I will be participating in a charity called “Climb for the Cure”? in which I will climb? Mt. Rainier to raise money for Breast Cancer Research benefiting the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.? Your support will help fund cutting-edge research in the prevention, detection and treatment of breast cancer.? Fortunately enough, I will not be doing this alone. I, along with four other friends from the Philadelphia area, will be making our way up to the summit as Team Cheesesteaks and Crampons (Crampons; the metal spikes that you attach to your climbing boots so you can climb on glaciers and don’t fall off).

Mount Rainer is the fourth tallest mountain in the Nation.? It stands over 14,411 feet above sea level.? The climb takes 3 days and consists of over? 30 hours of rock, snow, and glacier climbing.
Below is a link to my personal webpage. Please click on the link and donate if you’d like.Information for donations by mail is listed at the bottom.? Remember every donation counts.? We are trying to raise $30,000 this year, and be the first team ever from the East Coast to climb Mt. Rainier through “Climb for the Cure”

Also, Team Cheesesteaks and Crampons (John Gebert, Eric Malehorn, Mike Murzyniski, Matt Urban and Jeff Peters)? will be holding our first fundraising event on Saturday Feb 28th at Spamps restaurant in Conshohocken? from 9pm to 2am.?
