Register for Against the Tide to Help Prevent Breast Cancer!

Against the Tide is an annual family-friendly fundraising event to benefit the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC).  MBCC works to reduce toxic chemicals in the environment, which research shows are linked to the dramatic rise in the incidence of breast cancer.  Against the Tide will take place at DCR’s Nickerson State Park on Saturday June 23rd, from 7 a.m. until noon.  It consists of several different activities: a one-mile competitive or recreational swim, a two-mile kayak, a three-mile walk, and a 5K competitive or recreational run.  This is a non-certified 5k run.  Participants can choose to participate in one, two or three events!  Click here to sign up!
