Big thanks and loud love to Classic Harley Davidson, JR’s Brisket, JAM band, American Cancer Society Relay for Life, CBL Apparel, Reading Royals’ Ice Angels, and Berks County for for a wildly successful event and for helping us to raise awareness of the importance of colorectal cancer prevention and screening. Wear those undies with pride and spread the message to GET SCREENED!
Fun for the whole family!
Join us for some belly-busting laughs and butt kicking challenges and together we can fight this terrible disease and lower its incidence in our community. Come out and clean your pipes with us and let’s kick this disease in the butt! See you there!!
Why this event matters:
The dangers, preventions, and treatment of colorectal cancer are not widely known or discussed because colon cancer affects a part of the body that people often find embarrassing and are ashamed of talking about. Meanwhile colorectal cancer is the 2nd most common cause of cancer death in men and women in the US, affects approximately 150K people a year, 1/3 of which will die of the disease. This is because 1 in 3 Americans, even those with insurance, are NOT screened when recommended. It is a leading cause of cancer death in young men and women between the ages of 20 and 49! Colon cancer is beatable in 90% of cases when detected early, and with appropriate screening, and is often entirely preventable.
