PurpleStride Walk is Coming!
Please come out to Tybee November 12th and join the Savannah Affiliate of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network for The PurpleStride 2011 event! This is the perfect event to bring the whole family, meet others, and create memories. There are great incentives for fundraising and all proceeds benefit the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. Stride with others who are just as passionate about finding a cure for pancreatic cancer. Come enjoy a 5K run/walk and PurpleLight vigil to honor and remember loved ones, music, kids’ activities, refreshments, and much more!

The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, in their own words, “is the only national organization creating hope in a comprehensive way through research, patient support, community outreach, and advocacy for a cure.” You can read more about the group and their efforts at their website, just click the link above.
