Cancer Navigators’ Walk and Daisy Drop Set for Sunday

Cancer Navigators’ annual 1-Mile Walk and Daisy Drop will take place this on Sunday.

Participants can help local cancer patients in their fight against cancer by signing up for the walk, which will begin at Barron Stadium at 2 p.m. Registration is $20 and includes an event T-shirt.

The public’s support will help Cancer Navigators provide the following free services to cancer patients: social support, counseling, nutrition assistance, transportation assistance, medical supplies, wigs, hats and scarves, stress management and caregiver support.

The Daisy Drop is a free event for the community. Cancer Navigators’ staff will be set up near the Courtyard by Marriott distributing complimentary daisies to drop in the Oostanaula River in honor or in memory of loved ones affected by cancer.

The drop will begin at 3 p.m. at the Chief John Ross Memorial Bridge, which crosses the Oostanaula River to link the Town Green with the Courtyard by Marriott.

Parking for both events will be available at and around Barron Stadium.
