Carson City Kiwanis Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Day Recap
What do you get when you combine 134 golfers, 70 runners, and 24 weight lifters on a beautiful Saturday in September? The results are over $9,000 raised toward pancreatic cancer funding and over $3,000 raised for local scholarships. Pretty amazing, right?
On Saturday, Sept. 21, 2019, Carson City Kiwanis hosted their 6th Annual Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Day at Silver Oak Golf Course. This annual event is one of many fundraisers that Carson City Kiwanis hosts and coordinates each year.
For the past six years, this event has seen many participants from local politicians, to famous actors, and other individuals. Carson City Kiwanis is proud to continue the success of this event for the Carson City community. This event would not be as successful without the following sponsors: Kaia Fit, Tahoe Mountain Milers, Fitness 4 Life, BlueZone Sports, Fitness for 10, Visit Carson City, Monarch Direct, Mrs. Carson City, Sign Pro, American Family Insurance - Kadee Mason Agency, Waddell & Reed – Stevan Lyon, Michael Hohl Motor Company, Reno-Vation, Bristlecone Family Eye Care, Carson High School Key Club, and the many Kiwanis members who volunteered their time to coordinate this event.
Carson City Kiwanis would especially like to recognize one of our members, Robey Willis. Each year, Robey takes initiative to coordinate this event. He founded this event 6 years ago after Pancreatic Cancer impacted his life indirectly. Robey’s dedication and passion for this event helps to drive its success each year — Thank you, Robey!
