Fish For A Cure
Fish for A Cure (F4AC) began in 2007 as a way for friends to enjoy the beauty of the Chesapeake Bay, fulfill their passion for fishing, and have fun. After a successful first year, the wife of one of the main participants was diagnosed with cancer. A rigorous treatment schedule and the demands of daily family life nearly led to the end of the tournament. However, a few of the group members took the reins and turned the fishing tournament into a charitable event to raise money for cancer care in our community. F4AC has since raised over $4.5 million to support the Cancer Survivorship Program at Luminis Health Anne Arundel Medical Center’s (LHAAMC) Geaton and JoAnn DeCesaris Cancer Institute. The 17th annual Fish for a Cure will take place on Saturday, Nov 4, 2023.
