By: Neile Jones
Updated: May 1, 2012
The Komen Ozark Race For Cure brought thousands out to The Pinnacle Hills Promenade Mall in Rogers.

    According to The Ozark Affiliate, preliminary numbers show a little more than 12-thousand people came out to support the fight against breast cancer.
    Bark For The Cure brought in 675 dogs and their owners, making a difference one paw at a time.
    75-percent of the funds raised from the race will stay right here in Northwest Arkansas for breast health programs.
    The other 25-percent goes to research.
    Organizers do not yet have a number for the amount of money raised at the 14th Annual event.
