2e1ax_polish_entry_momile600The MO Mile Sat Nov 2

A walk on one of our golden Cayman beaches always makes you feel good, and on Saturday, November 2nd you can do some good for others too by joining us for the inaugural MO’ MILE, a beautiful Seven Mile Beach walk from Royal Palms to the Ritz (and back) to raise money and awareness for MOvember 2013 and men’s health issues such as prostate cancer.

It’s a wonderful opportunity for all those not able to grow a MO or participate in MOvember, such as wives, girlfriends, partners and children to be included in this great event. Registration is at 6pm on the beach at Royal Palms and the walk starts at 6:15pm.

The cost is just CI$10 all of which goes to the Cayman Islands Cancer Society. Please wear a blue t-shirt and Glo-bands will be handed out on sign up.

The walk takes approximately 45 minutes at a casual pace – the best speed for optimum enjoyment of sand and sea!

It’s a great chance to enjoy the best of Cayman whilst doing the best for Cayman!
