On Sunday, October 13, local residents will join together for The Lustgarten Foundation’s 13th annual Long Island Pancreatic Cancer Research Walk, which will be held at Jones Beach in Wantagh, Long Island. Walkers can participate in a one or three-mile walk along Jones Beach's scenic boardwalk. Since its inception, the Long Island walk has grown to more than 7,000 participants and raised more than $9.3 million for pancreatic cancer research. And because of Cablevision's support of The Lustgarten Foundation, 100 percent of every dollar raised goes directly to research aimed at early detection, more effective treatments and ultimately, a cure.
Participants may choose from a 1 or 3 mile route. The route is handicap and stroller accessible. Dogs are not permitted.
