Walk the Path to a Cure and Support Cancer Research in Arkansas
Register and join us on May 1st at War Memorial Stadium for our 7th annual Be A Part of the Cure Walk hosted by UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute. Celebrate and honor survivors, their families, remember loved ones who battled cancer, and unite businesses and walkers throughout Arkansas in finding a cure. The Cure Walk has grown to over 2,100 strong voices in the fight against cancer and is raising funds for cancer research grants in Arkansas.
Gates open at 6:30 am, with activities underway at 7 am. A wide array of vendors offer information and retail, and complimentary light food is available on the field. Our Growing Hope area welcomes and honors survivors along with their registered guest to enjoy a special experience. Random drawings, awards, and a Kids REDiscovery Zone filled with fun crafts, face painting, and fitness add to the excitement. The formal Program begins at 8 am with a photo of our survivors, along with speakers, with the emcee and drumline leading us in the final countdown. Experience the musical and artistic talents of school students and local entertainers along the walking course or stay in the stadium to mingle with the vendors, enjoying inspiring music. It is an event for all!!
