The Big Dig is a family friendly charitable event in which all proceeds raised go to support pediatric cancer research.
Join us for the 2021 Construction VS Cancer, "Big Dig" event! Families will have the opportunities for their kids to operate real construction machinery (with the assistance of an adult volunteer) in a fun, fair-like, atmosphere. All proceeds generated from the event will go to support pediatric cancer research. Pediatric cancer is the 2nd leading cause of death for children aged 0 - 18. We need more research to be able to find better, more child-friendly treatment options. This event launches childhood cancer awareness month (September). COVID-19 precautions will be put in place. There is also an option for families who are immunocompromised to sign up for a Big Dig Kit that they would pick up.
Registration will be free for families who have a young cancer fighter or survivor. Otherwise, GA attendance is $10/ticket or families packs are available ($50 for a Family Pack of 6). Visit the website and the Registration page for more info.
