Held at Blue Mash, this popular event is part of a special weekend dedicated to creating awareness and raising funds in support of the brain tumor community.

And, as with the Race for Hope – DC Presented by Cassidy & Pinkard Colliers, all funds raised in 2009 will benefit the National Brain Tumor Society and Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure.
