Against the Tide - Help Prevent Breast Cancer! Registration

Against the Tide is an annual family-friendly fundraising event to benefit the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC). MBCC works to reduce toxic chemicals in the environment which research shows are linked to the dramatic rise in incidence of breast cancer. Against the Tide will take place at Nickerson State Park on Saturday August 20th, from 7am until noon. It consists of several different activities - 2 one-mile swims - competitive OR recreational, a two-mile kayak, a three-mile recreational walk and a 5K fun run. This is a non-certified 5K run. Participants can choose to participate in one, two or three events! Go to www.mbcc.org/swim to sign up!
