Since 2008, Survivors Abreast has organized and hosted an Awareness Weekend in October Breast Cancer Awareness month. Inspired by past team members Caroline Basciano-Welch, the Survivors Abreast “awareness committee members “organized and invited several local health-related organizations to set up booths with staff to answer questions from the public and give out information and resources about female and male breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, recovery and support.

Testimonials
“Survivors Abreast is a kinship. We are a team of survivors who have had a life changing experience and when we are on the water, our fears and anxieties drift away. Survivors Abreast is a lifeline of support on and off the water. Did I mention the best part? We have fun! “ – Marilyn Buxton
“Joining the team is probably the best thing I could have done for my emotional well-being. When I am paddling, somehow I don’t think about having breast cancer. Paddling keeps me in the moment and I feel safe” – Michelle Thornton
