Cancer Assistance of Williams County (CAWC) will mark a milestone this summer as the Bike to the Bridge fundraiser celebrates its 25th anniversary, with the 2026 ride scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 1.
For nearly three decades, CAWC has provided direct financial support, guidance and compassion to local individuals and families facing cancer.
The Bike to the Bridge event, held each year on the first Saturday of August, has served as a fundraiser for that mission since 2001.
“For 25 years, riders, sponsors and volunteers have come together to bring hope and relief to those navigating one of life’s most difficult journeys,” wrote Mike Kurivial, chairman of the B2TB Committee, in a letter to community partners. He said organizers hope the anniversary event will be one of the most meaningful yet.
