The 2024 edition of Strike Out Cancer day was another incredible day, and one that brought great success! Another absolutely remarkable effort that was put together by so many selfless people helped to raise money for some really great causes. Some of the highlights of the day were being able to help the CC2 Forever Foundation donate $50K to the Lurie Cancer Center at Northwestern, and a very thoughtful dedication by the softball program in Courtney Schoolcraft’s memory.

Thank you so much to the massive number of people from the Lockport, Minooka, Yorkville, and all other communities who came out to support the causes on this great day! It is estimated that nearly 2,300 people attended this year’s Strike Out Cancer event.
