The Frick & Frack Story:
In 2017, we held our 1st Annual Frick & Frack 5K benefiting two wonderful sisters in our Hampton Roads community named Pattie and Jackie... affectionately know as Frick & Frack. They were both diagnosed with breast cancer in the same year and we were able to come together and help them in a beautiful way. The story doesn't end there. A few months after that race, Pattie’s daughter Lyndsey was also diagnosed with her second round of Breast Cancer. Yes...you read that right. Within less than a year, the same family had been struck 3 times! All 3 women are SURVIVORS today, and along with their framily and community, these women have set out on a crusade to take care of others, just as they were cared for during their battle. They have appropriately adopted the slogan...Her fight is our fight.
All proceeds from this event stay local and will benefit the Free Range Sisters Foundation. This foundation is set-up to assist our local female warriors with a variety of needs to include: medical connections and assistance, transportation, and our beloved comfort baskets for those healing from surgery and/or chemotherapy/radiation treatment. It has been our privilege to also walk alongside each of our warriors and help them with other needs such as general moral support, household care and financial assistance.
Until there is a cure for these cancers, we will always have someone in need! By supporting this event, you are directly enabling our community to step up and fight together. Her fight is OUR fight!
CHEERS! We hope you will join us for the Frick & Frack FRAMILY race!
