Presents Turning the Towns Teal Help


WOCA Build Awareness in September


Since September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, WOCA is joining forces with several communities statewide for its biggest awareness campaign to date: Turn the Towns Teal. You'll see teal ribbons around trees. Posters hanging in stores, gas stations, town halls and other buildings. Public service announcements on the jumbotron at Miller Park. In fact, here's a preview of everything "teal" that will be happening:

Tuesday, September 2: Our Turn Miller Park Teal event. WOCA is selling special ticket packages and throwing out the first pitch at the Brewers Game at 7:05PM against the Mets. Please join us in the loge outfield seats on the 3rd base side. It'll be a great night of baseball for a good cause -- bring friends or the whole family! Tickets are $25 and include a t-shirt. Call Sandi Wagner at (414)248-9631 to place your order.

Friday, September 5: Wear anything that's the color teal to show your support for the National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Day. It's a simple way to build awareness and
a good excuse to buy something new that's teal! Also happening this day is our Tea for Teal event in Fort Atkinson.

Saturday September 6: Lace up your walking or running shoes and join us at WOCA's Third Annual Nancy's Run Rock 'N Stroll in conjunction with TosaFest in downtown Wauwatosa. The 5K Run and 2-Mile fun walk begins at 5:30PM, with a kid's race at 4:00PM. Enjoy a beautiful route through the Menomonee River Parkway and all of the TosaFest activities. Cost is $17 ($20 on race day) for individuals or $50 ($60 on race day) for families up to 4. For more details, contact, Valarie Nolin, Race Director, at (414)403-3524 or at valnolin@yahoo.com, or register at
