Big Dam Bridge, Little Rock, AR

2013 Sponsorship Opportunities

The That Dam Cancer Run is a 5k run/walk for runners and walkers of all ages to benefit the American Cancer Society.  The run/walk will start at Murray Park in Little Rock at 8am on Saturday, August 24th

The course will head West down the Arkansas River Trail and then cross the Arkansas River on the Big Dam Bridge, the largest pedestrian only bridge in the United States.  Once onto the North Little Rock side of the river runners will complete a traffic round to head back over the Big Dam Bridge for the finish back in Murray Park.  Course length is 5 kilometer (3.1 miles) and features 118ft of elevation gain from the two crossings of the Big Dam Bridge.

 Each runner and walker who registers will receive an event t-shirt featuring the event sponsor logos.

Participation is planned to be at more than 300 runners/walkers.

This event supports the American Cancer Society’s mission to eliminate cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives, and diminishing suffering from cancer through research, education, advocacy, and service.  Your sponsorship dollars help us fund groundbreaking cancer research and provide programs such as Hope Lodge, Reach to Recovery, and Look Good, Feel Better to cancer survivors.

Thank you for considering a sponsorship in support the “That Dam Cancer Run”!
