8th Anniversary of Scrapbooking Event to benefit SC Upstate Susan G. Komen for the Cure

This year marks the 8th Anniversary of Crop for the Cure® when Local Creative Memories consultants host three fun days of scrapbooking to benefit the Upstate South Carolina Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. The event will be held on Saturday and Sunday, March 14 and 15 at the Carolina First Center in Greenville.  Events are from 9 am – 9 pm on Saturday and noon until 6 pm on Sunday.  These events expect to draw 450 participants.  These events offer Upstate residents the opportunity to learn how to create a memory-filled scrapbook photo album– and all for a good cause.

No previous scrapbooking experience is necessary and beginning classes will be offered.  Bring photographs and memorabilia you want to preserve. Scrapbook albums, supplies, mounting paper and stickers will be available for purchase by local Creative Memories consultants.  Digital scrapbooking classes will also be offered.  The Saturday event is $20 and $15 for the Sunday event ($30 for both).  Parking is free.  Discounts are available for multiple day registrations at http://www.KomenUpstateSC.org.  Food will be available on-site for purchase.  Great door prizes donated by local businesses will be given away. 

Funds raised will be used to fund breast cancer awareness programs, free mammograms and treatment support in the Upstate as well as to fund breast cancer research.  For more information, call 864-234-5035.  Register online at http://www.KomenUpstateSC.org (click on the Crop for the Cure logo).  Walk-ins are welcome.
