The Ansonia Rod & Gun Club continued its generous support of the Annual Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital 5K Walk/Run with a recent donation of $5,000.
The donation was spearheaded by Ansonia Rod & Gun Club Treasurer Horace Behrle, who also serves as a Volunteer Ambassador at the Center for Cancer Care.
Set for Oct. 6, this will be the fourth year for the Center For Cancer Care 5K Walk/Run, which brings together cancer patients, their family members, and friends, to run or walk throughout Derby and Ansonia in honor, memory, or celebration of a loved one and their cancer journey. The event has grown from approximately 250 participants in its inaugural year in 2009, to more than 500 participants last October.
