Sign up for some exercise and beautiful Napa Valley scenery that will raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer, a disease that affects 1 in 6 men.

The Blue Ribbon Team (sisters local to Napa) and Napa Valley Urology Associates (NVUA) they will be hosting the first 5k for prostate cancer awareness in Northern California.  We are proud to announce that 100% of the net proceeds will go directly to help fund prostate cancer research, early detection testing, treatments and potential cures.

In addition to the race, we hope to include, an organized warm-up by a personal trainer, vendor booths, face painting, chair massage, a photo booth, raffle prizes and an informational speaker about prostate cancer.
