The Northern California Cancer Advocates group will be hosting a golf tournament and 5K run/walk on Saturday, September 2nd, with proceeds from the fundraiser benefitting cancer victims, caregivers, family members and cancer fighters in Lassen and Plumas Counties.
The NCCA is a nonprofit organization operating out of both counties with the intent to provide support and guidance for people suffering from cancer during their time of need. The group has hosted this event for the last 4 years, bringing in more than $10,000 in contributions.
5K Fun Run and Walk for Cancer
Check-in for run/walk participants starts at 7:00a.m. The 5K begins and ends at Diamond Mountain Golf Club with a course that is partially dirt trails and paved roads. It’s great for beginners, families, pets and seasoned runners alike.
The run will be professionally chip timed by The Bizz Running Co. a local race timing and event management company.
Your $40 registration fee includes a t-shirt and swag bag.
