About
Embark on an inspiring journey with us at THE BLUE RIBBON RUN, an empowering afternoon event on Saturday, March 23, 2024, dedicated to raising funds and hope for colorectal cancer cures. Make your mark at Long Leaf Park in Wilmington, NC, with a choice of a 5K run/walk or a more leisurely 1.5-mile course—all while rallying for North Carolina families fighting this illness. Post-run, celebrate life at Dockside with the upbeat vibes of Lunar Tide, savor the highly anticipated local t-shirt designs, and contribute further through the sale of blue hydrangeas. Your participation fuels the impactful work of the Julie M. Brown and Christina Gianoplus Colon Cancer Foundation, in partnership with Wilmington Gastroenterology. Connect, celebrate, and change lives—join us to stride toward a future without colon cancer!
