Striking Gold at Ole’ Cowford

Posted on November 2, 2015 By Editor Social Events

Patrons packed the Jacksonville Fairgrounds to pay their respects to the mission of the American Cancer Society’s local North Florida Chapter. After all, most families have been touched by cancer and the importance of supporting the local campaign is just the start. As the largest fundraiser of its kind in Jacksonville for ACS, the goal remained clear – to help build a healthier tomorrow by ending cancer. Working together, a high bar was set at $500,000 for this year’s event, presented by the Ring Power Corporation.

Event goers helped to ‘pan out’ their reserves and stake a claim for local initiatives. The funds raised will help deliver community-based patient services, cancer education and assist in supporting cutting-edge cancer research. The event took place Oct. 3.
