Strong women paddle for breast cancer: Pink action in Hamm!

in the heart of Hamm will take place on Sunday, October 13, 2024, a special event that combines both sport and information. The Breast Center Hamm, the Hamm rowing club and the Ladybugs, known as the Pink Paddlers, invite everyone interested to a varied day under the motto "To water and on land". From 1:00 p.m., visitors can take part in the Auenpark at the Hamm rudder club, on the Jupp-Eickhoff-Weg, and look forward to an inspiring program that revolves around the topic of breast cancer and the positive effects of movement.

On this special day, the opportunity is given to try the dragon boat driving, which is a highlight of the program. Under the guidance of the ladybugs, who are composed of women who were suffering from breast cancer, the participants can get to know this exciting sport. Dragon booting has proven to be an effective way to strengthen the shoulder girdle, which is of great benefit to many breast cancer patients. "We paddle not only for ourselves, but for all women fighting breast cancer," said the ladybugs. It is pointed out that it is never too late to become active and to find joy in sport.

But the offer at the Hamm rowing club goes beyond dragon booting. Interested parties have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with rowing because the members of the rowing club offer introductory courses. In addition, various information stands are set up that illuminate important topics such as prevention measures, rehabilitation options and the handling of breast cancer. The action day therefore offers an excellent opportunity to not only become active, but also to find out about important health aspects in a relaxed atmosphere.

Participation in the event is free of charge, and prior registration is not necessary, which invites you to stop by spontaneously. The day aims to clarify and motivate those affected and their relatives to actively counteract the disease. "For us, sport is not just a hobby, but a way to show our strength and promote our health," said the ladybugs.

For everyone who is interested in dragon boating and other activities, the day is an inspiring opportunity to be part of a community that supports each other. This event is more than just a sports day; It connects people, encourages and raises awareness of the challenges associated with breast cancer.
