“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”
– Eleanor Roosevelt

Keith Zars Pools is turning our pools pink, and attending guests can show their support and enjoy margaritas and hors d’oeuvres poolside and listen to keynote speakers and live music.
Breast Cancer Fiesta Medals will be on sale, with all proceeds going to local San Antonio Susan G. Komen. Breast cancer survivors will be honored and receive corsages at the event.
Keith Zars Pools is dedicated to helping make a positive impact on the lives of those around us. In honor of Susan G. Komen, we look forward to seeing everyone who attends our Fiesta Kickoff fundraising event and hope to inspire, educate and raise money and awareness.

Eight Warning Signs of Breast Cancer
Did you know this year in the United States a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every two seconds? According to www.komensanantonio.org, there are eight warning signs of breast cancer:
1. Lump, hard knot or thickening inside the breast tissue
2. Swelling, warmth, redness or darkening of the breast
3. Change in the size or shape of the breast
4. Dimpling or puckering of the skin
5. Itchy, scaly sore or rash on the nipple
6. Pulling in of your nipple or other parts of the breast
7. Nipple discharge that starts suddenly
8. New pain in one spot that does not go away
Although this can be frightening to think about, it is important to understand the warning signs and understand your body. Even though breast cancer is a disease with no cure, there are many survivors and there is always hope. Due to raised awareness, early detection through screening, improved treatment methods and increased access to breast health services, people have a greater chance of survival than ever before, according to Susan G. Komen San Antonio.
