Calf Pasture Beach Norwalk, Conn. TEAM CAPTAIN’S KIT Welcome! We are so excited and grateful to have you join us at the 14th annual Whittingham Cancer Center Walk and Sally’s Run taking place on April 29 at Calf Pasture Beach in Norwalk, CT. Since its inception, proceeds from the walk and run remain in this community to support patient programs and services provided at the Whittingham Cancer Center at Norwalk Hospital. We are thrilled to share that the Cancer Center is in its new location with both the new Radiation Oncology Suite and new Medical Oncology Suite open. The community certainly has cause for celebration. The new Center doubles the existing treatment space and combines the latest in life-saving technologies with the medical expertise and personalized care the community has come to rely on – all in a warm, expansive new facility. Each year, the caregivers in the Whittingham Cancer Center oversee over 30,000 patient visits with nearly 800 of them being newly diagnosed patients. Thanks to the support of a generous community, the new Center will continue the hospital’s long tradition of providing the very best in compassionate cancer care. Thank you for the leadership, dedication and passion you demonstrate for this wonderful event. We look forward to seeing you on April 29!
