Step & Spine sponsors “Press On: Moving Lives Through Cancer” event

Step & Spine will join fellow PTs and other survivor supporters in celebrating the role our active Central Oregon lifestyle plays in “Pressing On” through cancer. The event will be held Saturday, Sept. 23 at the ATLAS Cider tasting room in Bend from 3 to 7 pm. There will be a 5K, live music, food, a raffle, and of course, cider! All fundraising proceeds from the event will support Tour des Chutes, a nonprofit organization that supports cancer care and survivorship for children and adults in Central Oregon. Tour des Chutes will work with Press On organizers to use these funds to create a new physical rehabilitation program serving local cancer survivors.

Local bands, “Weez-It” and “Streetlight Moon” will be taking the stage to help make Press On a positive, upbeat event. The Recharge 5K Fun Run is a run/walk for all levels. The cost is $30 ($35 on the day of the event) and all participants will receive a goody bag, a FREE pint of cider (or beer), and a Press On T-shirt.
