2014 Komen 3-Day® Packing Clinic

Attend one of our Get Prepped workshops and you’ll arrive at the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Opening Ceremony prepared! Whether you’re a veteran camper or new to the outdoor experience, camping on the Komen 3-Day adds an exciting element to your event preparations.


During this workshop, you’ll pick up some tips to make your 3-Day camping experience easy, comfortable and fun! See how a few seasoned 3-Day walkers pack for the event and what essentials they keep in their fanny pack while walking. Learn why they bring what they do, how packing order plays a big part and what their secret is to stay within the 35-pound limit. You’ll also have a chance to practice setting up and taking down a pink sleeping tent. Plus, enjoy a special discount just for 3-Day participants!

Coming to Twin Cities August 22-24, the Komen 3-Day® is a 60-mile walk 
for women and men who want to be a part of something bigger – ending breast 
cancer forever. Participants raise a minimum of $2,300 and walk an average of 
20 miles a day for three consecutive days, educating tens of thousands of people 
about breast health and raising funds to help support breast cancer research and 
community outreach programs.
