Cirque des Sore Legs
This year, Team Cirques des Sore Legs is back and will be participating in The 2024 Prouty along with thousands of our fellow community members who will bike, walk, row, golf and more to raise money for Dartmouth Cancer Center. Together, we will go all in to end cancer.
Dave B will be doing the challenging gravel bike ride; Justin will be riding the 50 mile road bike ride, and Jennie and I will be walking in Hanover. We will be trying to figure out the most shade friendly routes in the Hanover area. Our butts are tired of riding on bike seats HA HA.
More than one third of all people will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lifetimes.* It’s a universal problem that touches everyone, including the most important people in our lives. That’s why we joined The Prouty. All of the funds we raise go toward cutting-edge cancer research and crucial patient support services at the Cancer Center.

Jennie is a very young breast cancer survivor. Her sister has recently been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Dave and I have had multiple family members with cancer diagnoses, going back to the 1990's. Since earlier this year, my younger sister and a good neighbor have had new cancer diagnoses. So we have clearly been surrounded by friends and family who have had cancer diagnoses, and some difficult cancer treatment journeys.
Here are two ways that you can help support patients, doctors and caregivers in the fight against cancer:

All funds raised will help fund innovative researchers and clinicians who are dedicated to finding ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat cancer. Prouty funds also provide meaningful patient and family support services that are otherwise unfunded—such as support groups, massage, art therapy programs, transportation and grocery assistance, and more.
Thank you for your support!
Together, we are changing lives. Together, we will end cancer.
