Join us for the Paddle for PanCAN 5K! A kayak & paddleboard race that benefits the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network and its research to fight pancreatic cancer.
PURPOSE
“Pancreatic cancer takes 90 percent of its victims within five years and kills more people than breast cancer in the United States. The disease is the third leading cause of cancer-related death, and it is projected to become the second around 2020. More than 57,600 Americans will be diagnosed with the disease this year. That’s more than 158 mothers, daughters, fathers, sons, husbands, wives, sisters, brothers, colleagues, or friends who will hear the dreaded news every single day.”
