Union Hospital Radiation Oncology Center Cancer walk Oct. 4 to assist local patients

As part of Paint Tusc Pink, the Union Hospital Radiation Oncology Center team is hosting its first Cancer Walk to support area cancer patients and celebrate survivors.

The event is scheduled on Sunday, Oct. 4, at 10 a.m., on the campus of Kent State University Tuscarawas at New Philadelphia.

Paint Tusc Pink was launched nearly 20 years ago by the Union Hospital Community Health and Wellness program. The campaign encourages residents of Tuscarawas and surrounding counties to schedule regular screening mammograms for early detection and treatment of breast cancer.

The month of October annually is recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
