Run and Creep 5k Run/Walk
On behalf of Renaissance Athletic Club, I would like to thank you for considering your support of our 3rd Annual Run and Creep 5K Run/Walk. All funds raised from registration fees and sponsorships will cover all race expenses and any funds left will be donated to Berrien County Cancer Services in St. Joseph. RAC has been a proud supporter of this organization for many years.
About The Organization:
The Berrien County Cancer Service (BCCS) has had the honor of caring for Southwest Michigan's cancer patients since 1948. We are a unique, skilled oncology nursing service that provides compassionate care for cancer patients and those with related illnesses in the comfort of their own homes. We are able to do this at no cost because of the generosity of our community; we are "neighbors helping neighbors" in a time when local cancer patients need our special care.
In addition to our nursing care services, we have an extensive loan closet of medical equipment and supplies that we offer at no cost, including nutritional supplements, wound management supplies, and incontinence products. We also have wigs, turbans, and caps and can provide breast cancer patients with special products. We also host an art program for children and families impacted by cancer.
Our services are available to all residents of Berrien County who have been diagnosed with cancer or a related illness by a licensed physician at any facility.
RACE LOCATION:
Renaissance Athletic Club 501 Graham Ave, Benton Harbor MI 49022
