From the Organizer
Join us Saturday, October 17th, 2026, on Ocean Pathway in Ocean Grove, New Jersey, as we
walk, run, dance, and celebrate in support of the incredible women of Mary’s Place by the Sea.
This year, we proudly celebrate 17 years of service to more than 17,000 women with cancer.
Because of your continued generosity, we’ve been able to provide every guest with holistic
services and comfortable accommodations—completely free of charge. Now, it’s time to come
together and celebrate all that weve accomplished—because of you!
In addition to our cherished vendor market, we’re excited to introduce an expanded lineup of
food vendors and food trucks.
Our fundraising goal for this year is $200,000. Every contribution supports our mission to offer
women with cancer a place of healing—where they can rest, restore, and reconnect in mind,
body, and soul.
So lace up your sneakers, grab your water bottles, and join us for a joyful day of community,
compassion, and celebration. We can’t wait to welcome you this October!
With Love & Gratitude,
The Team at Mary's Place by the Sea
