Next generation The CBC is a family-organized fundraiser consisting of running, paddling and swimming events to honor and support those affected by leukemia, lymphoma and other blood-related cancers. This year’s CBC is the 18th Annual and will be held Saturday June 25, 2016. The CBC was started in 1999 in honor of Nancy Chellemi, mother of two, who died of leukemia in 1998. Each year the CBC reunites old friends and forges new friendships all while having a fun day at the beach and raising money for those less fortunate.
1st Annual CBC - 1999 Money is raised through participant registration, contributions and sponsorships. All proceeds are donated to the North Florida Chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Check out http://www.leukemia-lymphoma.org to see how the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society offers patient services, disseminates information, and supports research involving blood-related cancers. $280,000 has been donated to the Society in the previous 16 years the CBC has been held.
On behalf of Josh Hellstrom who hiked 500 miles on the Colorado Trail to celebrate his lymphoma remission and raise money for the LLS, John Howard, Leslie and Carly Hellstrom presented a check for $10,000 to Kelley Lesperance, director of Central Florida Chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society at the 2015 CBC.

2005 Run Run Events
2008 Paddle Ocean Events Ocean race course and race details: Three bright-colored buoys will be placed outside the surf zone. One will be placed directly out from the starting line while the second and third buoys will be placed at the halfway points of the 1 and 2K distances, respectively. All paddlers and swimmers must go around the first buoy before proceeding south along the course. 1K swimmers will turn around the second buoy while the 2K paddlers will turn around the third buoy. After making the turnaround, racers must go outside and around the first buoy before returning to shore. For 4K and 6K races, repeat 2K lap. On shore will be a finish line. Swimmers and paddlers must finish their races by reaching the finish line on shore: kayakers and OC-1 can leave their craft at the water's edge but surfboards and SUPs must be carried across the finish line. Combined ‘Kahuna’ Events Kahuna race details: Kahuna events will be one continuous race. In other words, participants will immediately grab their surfboards at the end of the run and start the paddle leg.
