STROLLIN FOR THE COLON REGISTRATION 2026

Why we Walk

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in the United States, with the American Cancer Society estimating approximately 108,860 new cases this year. While routine screening and healthy lifestyle choices can significantly reduce risk, many individuals are unsure where to begin.

Strollin’ for the Colon was created to change that.

This community wide awareness event brings together survivors, supporters, family, and friends in an effort to make the conversation around colon cancer prevention more accessible and empowering for everyone.
