The 12th annual Knock Out Cancer fundraiser was a big success and a fun time for all.
It was an enjoyable afternoon, participants and volunteers were entertained by the
spirited competition and happy to be together again as a community.
The fundraiser was inspired by Janice Mannion in 2010 as she battled cancer and
supports cancer care and research through the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and The
Jimmy Fund. This year’s event raised over $13,000 bringing the 12 year close to
$175,000.
Thanks to all who participated, donated and volunteered to this worthwhile cause.
Knock Out Cancer will return to the normal basketball season time frame in March and
April 2022.
