WELCOME TO THE INAUGURAL, ILLINOIS ORAL CANCER AWARENESS WALK!

Members and friends of the Northern Illinois Dental Community are excited to host this groundbreaking event. Oral cancer, which includes the head and neck region, is taking more lives than many other cancers we routinely hear about; killing one American per hour! The most significant effort to reduce the death rate from oral cancer is coming from early detection and increased awareness of this disease.  Our approximate 5-mile walk will aim to educate participants about many of the current facts and trends related to oral cancer and conclude with a free oral cancer screening.  All proceeds raised will benefit the Oral Cancer Foundation.  Sponsorship opportunities are available by contacting Alison Stahl, Event Coordinator.

PLEASE JOIN US, RAIN OR SHINE AS WE “SPREAD AWARENESS & SAVE LIVES”

Online registration closes on 6/9/12 at 2pm, after this date please register in person on day of event with cash/check/money order made payable to the Oral Cancer Foundation.

Kids 5 and Under are Free
