Never done a Tweet Chat before? That’s okay! Some people call them Twitter Parties or Twitter Meet-Ups, but whatever the name, it works like this:

  1. Sign on to Twitter at 5:00 p.m. PDT (or a few minutes before).
  2. Make sure you’re following @The3Day on Twitter.
  3. On Twitter, search for #The3Day, which is the official hashtag we will use for this Tweet Chat.
  4. You can also use the website TweetChat.com. Sign in, enter the hashtag #The3Day, and you’ll be able to watch and tweet in real-time with us.
  5. We’ll ask some questions to get things started, and we will also share tips and tricks from 3-Day veterans and coaches. This will be a great way to meet your fellow 3-Day participants and ask questions. Our 3-Day Social Media Team, Alyssa and Erin, can’t wait to tweet with you!

Not on Twitter yet? Here are a few quick tips to get you started:

  • It’s free and easy to join at Twitter.com.
  • Go to twitter.com/the3day and click “Follow” to make sure our messages show up in your feed.
  • A hashtag is a way to “file” tweets and collect them under a certain topic, so you’ll be able to see everything everyone is tweeting under this hashtag. Just search for #the3day in Twitter and you’ll be able to see everyone’s messages about the 3-Day, not just ours.
  • When writing your own messages, keep in mind that tweets can only be 140 characters at a time, so it’s best to keep things short n’ sweet.susan g. komen 3-Day breast cancer walk blog 60 miles twitter tweet chat

If you can’t make this Tweet Chat, you can always search #The3Day on Twitter to see all of the tweets that came from this Tweet Chat. Do you have any questions? Ask here, and remember, the 3-Day coaches are only a phone call away at 800-996-3DAY!

 

Do You Have What it Takes to Be a 3-Day Ambassador?

Do any of these descriptions fit you?

  • You love the Susan G. Komen 3-Day®. Like, you REALLY love it. You wear your Komen 3-Day gear around town, you’re up to date on the latest news from Susan G. Komen® about the fight against breast cancer, and most of all, you talk about the 3-Day® to everyone you can, telling them what an amazing experience it is.
  • When it comes to your community, “active” only scratches the surface of your involvement. You’re well known by your neighbors, community organizations, local businesses and maybe even the town government and/or local press.
  • You’re a networking wizard, never passing up an opportunity to connect with people you know or people you meet.
  • Social media is totally your thing. You frequently post on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and one of your favorite topics is the 3-Day.susan g. komen 3-Day breast cancer walk blog 60 miles ambassador community

If you match any of these descriptions, you would be the perfect person to be a 3-Day Ambassador. Ambassadors are passionate participants who are willing to enthusiastically spread the word about the 3-Day within their personal circles, as well as telling their story and promoting the 3-Day’s mission to their wider community.
