What are you doing April 29th this year? Why not join with other cancer survivors and get yourself to Stowe, Vermont for a weekend that inspires, educates, and celebrates the fight against cancer? It’s the 11th annual Stowe Weekend of Hope:

Imagine having the chance to network with such a large group. These are people in various stages of cancer treatment and survival. It’s a chance to learn, to have fun, but above all else, to embrace life.
What can you look forward to if you go? The town opens its arms and its hotel rooms to you and your family. Complimentary lodging for first-time attendees. Gatherings geared towards providing you with information on specific kinds of cancer. Social opportunities to schmooze with other families touched by cancer. Fun and food. The event is free, supported by corporate and foundation donations.
Registration begins on March 1, so think about it. Start imagining what it would be like to just be yourself for a weekend and be with people who know what you’re going through because they’re going through it, too. It’s a chance to meet some mighty interesting people and network about a disease that affects too many people.
