Description

Join us for the Beer & Cheer Mile! a lighthearted neighborhood event with a powerful purpose: to rally around our friend and neighbor, Melissa. She’s a devoted wife, fellow military spouse, and loving mom to two young boys, now facing late-stage colon cancer with incredible strength.

In person date and time still TBD, but feel free to do this virtually!

We’ll take on four laps together, running, walking, sipping, and cheering. Not a runner? That’s okay! Come for the cheering, the blue ribbons, and the community spirit.

Here’s how it works: each participant will run or walk a quarter mile, stop to enjoy their beverage of choice (beer, NA beer, chocolate milk, or whatever feels right!), and then head back out for the next lap. Four laps, four cheers, and one mile filled with laughter, encouragement, and community.

Wear blue to honor colon cancer awareness, raise a glass for hope, and let’s show Melissa and her family the power of love, support, and togetherness.

💙 How You Can Help: Proceeds and donations from this event will go directly to support Melissa and her family with medical and daily living expenses as they navigate this fight. Every step, sip, and cheer makes a difference.
