Bethlehem is located in eastern Pennsylvania near the New Jersey border, and is about 1-1/2 hour drive from Philadelphia and New York City.
We will have plenty to eat and drink, a DJ to entertain us, and a beautiful park to walk in. Three local dentists will be offering oral cancer screenings and you will have the option to get a screening using the VELscope.
The walk is being organized by a group of oral cancer survivors. Our �senior� member is a 17 year survivor, we have two 13 year survivors, a 10 year, and a few of us that completed treatment more recently.
If you are in the area, please come out and support OCF! I hope to see you there!
