Organiser's Description
Sarcoma Stomp is being held in honor of Bo Arvin. Bo was a kind loving son, brother, uncle and friend. Bo was a person to bring people together and raise people up; a person to brighten a room of darkness through his humor and kindness. Bo suffered with skin cancer at age 7, Large B cell lymphoma at age 15, and finally, succumbed to epithelioid sarcoma at age 27. Sarcoma is under researched because of its rarity; only 1-2% of all cancers but accounts for about 15% of all childhood cancer diagnoses. Most funding for pediatric/young adult cancers is sponsored by families/friends of dead children. We are the family and friends raising money for research because no kid should ever have to hear the words: "no treatment, no cure, live expectancy of 6-9 months."
