The Copper Country Cruizers gifted pink, khaki, red and blue logo caps to the Gila Regional Cancer Center (GRCC) for patients undergoing treatment. Club member Leon Colgan said, “Since several club members have been through the cancer treatment journey and two of us here at the Cancer Center, we know what it’s like to see your hair fall out because of chemotherapy.” The gifted patient caps are celebrating the club’s annual “Run to Copper Country” car show held at Gough Park.
 
“Thank you, Cruizers, for the caps. Your club’s generosity makes a difference in  the lives of our patients,” stated GRCC Director Mike Torres.
