Day Kimball Healthcare’s (DKH) Cruise, 烧烤 & Brew Motorcycle and Car Cruise was held on Sunday, 7月31日, 筹集了超过23美元,000 to benefit the NECT Cancer Fund of DKH.

Our Cruisin’ for 癌症治疗 Committee welcomed record-breaking attendance with more than 150 cars and motorcycles and 250 participants who joined in for memorial laps around the Thompson Speedway’s 1.7英里航程, followed by a scenic ride that covered over 40 miles throughout beautiful Northeast Connecticut. This year’s event concluded at the Black Dog Bar and 格栅 in Putnam where participants convened for a delicious 烧烤 lunch and entertainment by Nick Casey. 

This annual event allows riders to commemorate their loved ones by including their name in a special memorial tribute during memorial laps at the track, and many joined in honor of a cancer survivor or in memory of a loved one.

“Because of the high-quality and compassionate approach our team gives each of our patients and their caregivers, people continue to choose to receive their care at DKH,凯尔·克莱默说, chief executive officer, Day Kimball Healthcare. “The proceeds from this event will allow us to continue to provide financial assistance for cancer-related screening and treatment services to those battling cancer in our community who otherwise may not have the financial resources to pay for needed medical care.” 

This 18th annual event was organized by DKH’s Cruisin’ for 癌症治疗 Committee, DKH and community volunteers, several of whom have been part of the event since its inception, and members of SPIROL International’s employee fundraising team. Sponsors for this year’s event included: SPIROL International, presenting sponsor; major sponsors WIN Waste Innovations, 森特维尔银行, 和维斯, 黑尔 & Zahansky Strategic Wealth Advisors; and host sponsors Thompson Speedway and the Black Dog Bar & 格栅.

“As this event has grown, we’ve been increasingly overwhelmed with the support from our community,” said Kristen Willis, director of development, Day Kimball Healthcare. “We are blown away by the number of participants this year, and with the help of our sponsors, we are thrilled with the amount we were able to raise for the Northeast Connecticut Cancer Fund of DKH. This year’s event was our biggest yet, and we are excited to see what next year brings.”

To date, this event has contributed over $186,000 to the Northeast Connecticut Cancer Fund of DKH. To learn more about the Northeast Connecticut Cancer Fund of DKH, visit yogangel.com/nectcancerfund.
