Welcome to Our 24th Annual Cruisin’ For A Cure
Thank you all for your continued support in helping us save our men from prostate cancer and helping us raise money for the KSK Cancer Center of Irvine for prostate cancer research all these years. The PSA test and digital rectal exam is STILL THE BEST WAY TO DETECT prostate cancer, and hopefully early too. Be sure to take advantage of the FREE Prostate Cancer Screenings from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Anaheim Building for your PSA test. It only takes 10 minutes and could literally save your life Thank you also to Westpac Labs for running all of the PSA blood tests and getting the results back to KSK Cancer Center to send all our tested men their results. Last year 602 men were tested and 224 had elevated PSA’s!
Although it is impossible to thank each and every one of our volunteers face-to-face each year, IT IS BECAUSE EVERY ONE OF THE VOLUNTEERS brings a special value to our team that no one else could I am very thankful, and extremely appreciative for your time, and devotion to our cause Your big smiles with big hearts when greeting everyone makes them feel welcome to be part of this wonderful event to save our men
