SUMMARY:Bank of America Capalbo Strong Walk at Jennings Beach
DESCRIPTION:The Bank of America Capalbo Strong Walk returns to Fairfield on Sunday\, October 4\, honoring the legacy of Charlie Capalbo and bringing the community together to support pediatric cancer research and families facing similar challenges. \nRegistration begins at 7 am\, with the 24K walk starting at 8 am from Jennings Beach.
