BBCC Hero to Run Vallarta Half Marathon

This year, Dana will be running the 8th Annual Puerto Vallarta Half Marathon and 5K Competition on November 7th to raise much-needed funds for the BBCC non-profit bicultural learning center.
Let's hear it for Dana, our Marathon Man! At last year's Puerto Vallarta Half Marathon, he raised a cool $1000 USD for the Bucerías Bilingual Community Center. This year, our hero will be running for the BBCC again at the 8th Annual Puerto Vallarta Half Marathon and 5K Competition on November 7th.

The carrot we dangle each year (and he falls for it every time) is "Dana, survive it and we'll treat you to brunch at the Sheraton." And he runs... and the BBCC gets a nice fat check, thanks to all of you who donate.

Last year, not only did Dana shave 10 minutes off his previous time, but he also raised double the amount of previous years; with donations coming in from all over the world in support of the Bucerías Bilingual Community Center.

So, of course, you know we are going to ask you to help us keep our doors open all over again!

This year, Dana will run for the BBCC once again at the 8th Annual Puerto Vallarta Half Marathon and 5K Competition on November 7th. He is ready and tells us he is going to shave another 10 minutes off his time this year. Surely that deserves a reward!

To donate via PayPal, go to BuceriasBilingualCommunityCenter.org; click on the yellow donation button on the left side of first page; click on donate again in next screen; enter the amount you wish to donate; put in Dana's Run under purpose, and then click update. That's all there is to it!

The BBCC is a non-profit bicultural learning center working to create a community where people share the joy of developing new skills and learning their neighbor's language and cultural background. Visit BuceriasBilingualCommunityCenter.org for more information.
