Cedar Crest Community Steps Up at Annual Breast Cancer Walk

On October 7, in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Cedar Crest Retirement Community hosted its 3rd Annual Breast Cancer Walk. More than 100 residents and staff adorned in pink apparel walked together on campus to promote awareness and raise money for breast cancer research. The walk raised more than $1,400 for the American Cancer Society.

The event included a ½ mile walk on campus as well as a “Pink Party Expo” with a DJ, free food, prizes, giveaways, pictures, fitness fun, vendors, and a farmer’s market.

“This is a fantastic event for our residents and staff to come together, enjoy a day of fun and exercise, and raise money for an important cause,” said Cedar Crest Fitness Specialist Tiffany Taylor.

Cedar Crest is one of 19 continuing care retirement communities managed by Erickson Living. The scenic 104-acre campus is located in Pompton Plains, New Jersey and is home to over 2,000 residents. The community offers abundant amenities, hundreds of clubs and activities, on-site restaurants, a state-of-the-art medical center, an all-season pool and a fitness center.
