From the official event website:

According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) State Cancer Profiles, Muskegon County is the only county in Michigan for which incidence rates of all cancers (both sexes, all cancer sites, all ages) increased for the latest available reporting period (2007-2011) [1].

There are many possible explanations for geographic variations in cancer rates including differences in lifestyles, medical care availability and delivery systems, screening practices, reporting practices, and environmental exposures.

We thought we create this event to draw attention to this undesirable, rising trend of cancer incidence in Muskegon County, by showcasing the importance of lifestyle changes for cancer prevention and in survivorship with, fun, educational activities.
