This event is all about bringing people and businesses together to focus on fighting the war against cancer. Last year was a HUGE success with a *Fan Favorite* TUG-OF-WAR contest that will be expanding this year! With that being said, there will be TWO Adult Categories: Competitive & Just-for-Fun, with ONE kids category!
Create a team of 8 people. They can be from your business, family, friends, or gym! Each team will have an online campaign to raise funds before the event. TWO ways to earn bragging rights: The day of the event, show up in strength and joy to battle for the Tug-of-War trophy or just to have fun. There will also be a trophy awarded to the team who raises the most funds.
The proceeds of this event will go directly to UCANCERVIVE to help fund cancer research, along with supporting a local family affected by cancer.
We look forward to joining together to hear cancer survivor testimonies, engage in a tribute together for all those who have been affected by cancer, and to enjoy the day as one, knowing we are making a difference in the world of cancer. We look forward to uniting as a community!
