PEDAL TO END CANCER

Every year the Waverley Oaks community comes together for Pedal to End Cancer – a fundraiser to support the American Cancer Society. This year’s fundraiser will take place on Sunday, April 26th.

In the months leading up to the event funds will be raised – every day getting closer to the fundraising goal. Then, on the day of the event, we’ll honor the lives lost to cancer, celebrate survivors, and support the caregivers who so selflessly help others.

You can donate & support, donate & ride for 1, 2 or 3 hours or create your own team of three and take turns riding throughout the event. To reserve a bike, a minimum donation of $100 is required. Please note, a $25 registration fee will be applied. Space is limited, so sign up now to secure a bike!

Reach out to HeatherH@waverleyoaks.com with any questions.


FIND YOUR VOICE WORKSHOP

To help you find your true speaking voice, this workshop will explore range and stamina through breathing exercises, vocal warm-ups, and short readings. Participants will practice confident self-introductions while discussing common vocal habits and performance anxieties. Volunteers will receive brief individual guidance in front of the group, creating an opportunity for shared observation and learning. This is a safe space to sound like you.
