WHAT – In observance of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in Nassau County and across America, Nassau County Legislator Carrié Solages (D – Valley Stream) is partnering with Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages and the Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline and Support Program to host the annual Dr. Elsy Mecklembourg-Guibert Memorial Breast Cancer Walk/Run/Roll at Valley Stream’s Arthur J. Hendrickson Park in Valley Stream on Sunday, Oct. 5. Participants in the event will honor survivors, uplift those currently in treatment, and remember the lives lost to breast cancer.
“Dr. Elsy Mecklembourg-Guibert was an inspirational community leader who inspired so many people to step up, give back, and commit themselves to helping others,” Legislator Solages said. “Her passion for promoting health and cancer awareness was unparalleled, and holding this event during Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a fitting tribute to her life’s work. Please join us as we raise awareness and support this life-saving mission!”
