​Every September, the Lois Wells Memorial Kicks for Cancer event brings together local high school soccer teams to compete at Concord-Carlisle High School. It started with one game in 2007. On September 26, thirty-two soccer teams will take the field with jerseys bearing a loved one’s name.

Read all about it!

The Mighty Moose Fun Run/Walk is held in memory of Jenna Swaim, a loving mother, and wife who lost her courageous four-year battle with ovarian cancer on July 3, 2018. She was 43 years old. The name of the event is inspired by Jenna’s Alaskan roots, love for fun, and strength! The event is part of the Kicks for Cancer weekend, a very successful fundraiser that the Concord Carlisle High School soccer team and coaches Ray Pavlik & Steve Wells started in 2007.

We will continue Jenna‘s legacy and vision to raise crucial funding for this cause. All funds raised will support the ovarian cancer research of Dr. Kevin Elias. Together we are making a difference!

 

​The day now widely known as “Kicks” anchors what has become a full week of events and community involvement in the true spirit of “One Community One Goal”. Local communities come together to raise funds to support women’s cancer research, with a particular focus on early detection efforts for ovarian cancer.
