The combined efforts of Jack's Marathon Team and the participants of the Sixth Annual "This Run's for Jack" 5k raised awareness and raised over $170,000 in the fight against Melanoma!
Thank you Dr. Ariano and Dr. Gray for once again providing free skin cancer screenings for race participants. This year the doctors saw a record (70+) people and saved lives by raising awareness.
The “Family Tent” welcomed 250 friends and families. The “Family Tent” serves as a place of respite, offering food, coffee and friendship to those whom melanoma has touched.
Thank you to all the volunteers, runners and walkers who braved the weather and shared warm smiles and hearts on a chilly Sunday morning. Wear your t-shirt proudly - you are a true example of: Strength. Passion. Focus. (SPF) !!
