Getting mail on event can provide a big boost to a participant’s spirits. Take a few minutes to write a note which will brighten their Komen 3-Day experience! Send your letters to our P.O. Box and we’ll deliver them to camp for participants to pick up.
Susan G. Komen 3-Day Camp Mail
ATTN: [INSERT NAME OF PARTICIPANT HERE]
P.O. Box 1528
Granbury, TX 76048
Mail must be received before October 20. Envelopes only, please. No boxes or large packages. Any mail that is not received by the 3-Day before October 20 or retrieved by the participant by November 13 will be destroyed. Please note: This address is not the actual location of the 3-Day event, but a P.O. Box for mail delivery only.
For a $10 donation, the 3-Day will put together a custom notecard with your personal message, along with a custom 3-Day mini chocolate bar, for the participant to pick up at the 3-Day Lounge on Friday or Saturday evening.
For a $15 donation, we will put your message (limit 150 characters) up on our Video Wall at camp for everyone to see. This message will be displayed several times throughout the weekend for your 3-Day walker to see your support. Or for $20 you can send both a sweet treat and a slide show shout-out. Click here for more information and to order. Orders will be accepted between May 31 - September 22.
We need volunteers! There are lots of opportunities available, including helping out at the Finish Line Festival on Sunday and cheering along the route. It’s a meaningful and fun way to be involved in the 3-Day! Click here to sign up to volunteer.
Public cheering stations are a great way to show your support along the route. Create banners, hold up signs, bring some music and spread the love—anything to make walkers smile, stay energized and keep walking. On some portions of the route you may find areas that are deemed “quiet zones” which will be indicated by signage on the route. Please assist us in respecting our neighborhoods and communities during this time.
