A Successful Walk for Cancer

Cindy was a proud organizer of Ancient Peaks Winery’s “Walk for Cancer” on Sunday, Oct. 16, 2022. This colorful two-mile vineyard stroll concluded with a light breakfast and glass of rosé at the winery’s Oyster Ridge event barn. Guests were encouraged to wear pink attire to “enliven the event with good vibes and solidarity in the fight against cancer.”

All proceeds benefitted the Cancer Support Community Central Coast, a nonprofit dedicated to providing San Luis Obispo County cancer patients and their families with hope, education and support.

“This is a disease that ravages the body but also drains the family unit,” says Cindy, a cancer survivor herself who notes that several people in the Ancient Peaks family have been affected by cancer recently. “The scientific community has made such extraordinary strides, but there is much more to conquer.”

“When they say, ‘Enjoy each day,’ it is very true—no one knows that better than a cancer survivor,” Cindy says “And that’s what we set out to do: get outside together, soak up the natural beauty and enjoy the moment.”
