Each year, the Center for Cancer Care at Exeter Hospital participates in several events designed to increase awareness for cancer prevention and support, raise funds for cancer research and programming, and celebrate survivorship.
The Relay for Life is an annual summer event hosted by The American Cancer Society at Phillips Exeter Academy. Teams of 8-15 people walk or run around the track for 18 hours while generating donations from sponsors. Many fun activities are planned and the music is always lively. Come enjoy the survivor’s lap and opening ceremonies as well as the luminary ceremony at dusk. Contact the American Cancer Society at 1-800-ACS-2345 or www.cancer.org for more details.
Making Strides against Breast Cancer is an annual event in October - breast cancer awareness month - hosted by The American Cancer Society and Exeter Health Resources, at Synergy Health and Fitness Center. Sponsored teams walk a planned route through downtown Exeter with the funds raised going towards breast cancer research. Please contact Karen Ellis at (603) 580-6775 for more information.
