What is HEADRUSH?

A Fifth Annual Wisconsin Brain Tumor Event to benefit Brain Tumor Research and Education at the University of Wisconsin Comprehensive Cancer Center.

The event will be held on Saturday, September 27th, 2008 at Blue Mound State Park, Blue Mounds, WI from 9:30AM - 4PM.

HEADRUSH is a fundraising event that increases awareness of Brain Tumors and their impact, while enjoying the outdoors with family and friends. HEADRUSH is a non-profit organization whose mission is to significantly improve the future of Brain Tumor research, treatment, and survivorship. HEADRUSH was originally created in 2004 by Chris and Brandi Funk. Chris is a young 30-something living with brain cancer, and he and his wife wanted to put together a fun event that would "give back" to their community and also create brain tumor awareness. HEADRUSH proceeds directly benefit the University of Wisconsin Comprehensive Cancer Center in the form of a Brain Tumor Research Professorship.
