Walk a Mile to Fight Cancer in Brooklyn

By Matthew Hampton 

Your next chance to help fight cancer in your community is coming on Saturday in Williamsburg.

The American Cancer Society's Relay for Life in Williamsburg will take place from 10 a.m. June 15 to 8 a.m. June 16 at CitiStorage, at North 11th Street and Kent Avenue.

Each Relay For Life is an overnight community walkathon, in which local residents, families and volunteers camp out and take to their neighborhood track to raise money to fight cancer research.

Are you planning to walk? Let us know in the comments and you can share photos as well.
