DUE TO BAD WEATHER THIS WALK IS NOW A VIRTUAL EVENT.
Unfortunately, the weather report keeps getting worse for both Saturday and Sunday, with the latest update calling for 2 to 4 inches of rain, 20 mile an hour winds and an 85% probability of the storm hitting when the walk is scheduled. AccuWeather forecasters are warning that this coastal storm will be a tropical rainstorm and may even strengthen into a depression or subtropical storm. Outdoor events like the “Bellmore Street Fair”, “Syosset/Woodbury Fair” and others have been canceled.
Instead of coming to Eisenhower Park, we are asking that everyone treat this as a virtual event and pick a suitable time and place to Show Your Stripes! Please take pictures and post them on social media and tag us @netcanceraware.
As a virtual walker, you’ll join hundreds of other participants all walking for the same cause. The great thing about a virtual walk is that you can participate at any time and from anywhere! Once registered for the walk, you can choose the date, time and location that works for you. Then, join other walkers online by sharing photos and videos to your social media. Join the conversation by tagging NCAN on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram @netcanceraware.
If you or someone you know hasn’t signed up yet, you can still register for this virtual walk.
