Braden Ash's Golf Marathon for Colon Cancer
As many of you know a fight with cancer is not a sprint, but rather a marathon.
On January 17th of this year, my uncle Steve Ash was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. Anyone who has crossed paths with Steve knows that this news is just the start of his marathon to overcome this diagnosis. Steve has fallen in love with the game of golf over the recent years so there is no better way to fundraise money for the Colorectal Cancer Alliance and colon cancer research than to do a golf marathon.
The marathon will take place June 5th, at Quail Valley Golf Course in Banks, Oregon. The goal is for me to play as many holes as both myself and best friend Matt Brandt can from sunrise to sunset with the hopes to surpass 100 holes.
There are two different ways to donate:
1. If you want to donate a set amount, any and all donations are appreciated and we thank you for your support.
2. You can choose to donate per hole played and submit that donation amount after the event, once the final number of holes is tallied. To do this please navigate to the Pledge Sheet so we know how much is pledged for each hole I play!
Following the event, all donations will be directly donated to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance in Steve's name!
Let's honor Steve by raising money for Colon Cancer Research!- A

Chris' Crusade against Colon Cancer
As some of you may know, my Uncle Chris passed from undiagnosed colon cancer this December, leaving myself as well as my family completely shocked and deeply saddened. Chris was the most loving, passionate, kind-hearted person and left a positive lasting impression on everyone who spent time with him.
I, along with Howard Cohen, will be running the Long Island Half Marathon on May 6th in Chris’s memory. We are hoping to raise money for the Colorectal Cancer Alliance to help other families who are going through a similar experience. If you could please help honor my Uncle’s life and donate to this cause, it would be appreciated more than you know.
Anyone that knew my Uncle Chris knew how passionate he was about theatre and the arts—he devoted his entire life to his passion, no matter how hard of a life it was he loved it. He was incredibly talented and had a thing for all things drama. So to add drama to this all, as Chris would have, if we can raise $2,500 towards this foundation, I will commit to running the Full, 26.2-mile, LI Marathon!

Whether you are donating money or your time and effort, I appreciate ALL contributions of any size and form. PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS, with or without contributions, so everyone can see the canvas of experiences Chris left behind.- R
