Why Get Your Rear in Gear
 

Being part of a Get Your Rear in Gear event means joining North America’s largest grassroots movement in the fight against colorectal cancer. Your actions and voice have the power to change the lives of local patients, survivors, and caregivers!
 


Local Impact

Your funds stay local. We are unique in that funds raised at this event stay in the community to get people screened, directly support local colon cancer patients, and educate
the community.

Raise Awareness

Get Your Rear in Gear is about more than getting active. It’s a movement to spread awareness about this disease and educate our friends and family about the importance of getting educated and screened on time.

Honor & Support

Celebrate. Honor. Remember.
Join us along The Blue Mile as we pay tribute to all who have been affected by colon cancer through customizable signs that you can take and display throughout the year.
