LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Cancerfest in Hillview adds a little fun in the fight against cancer.
WDRB’s Keith Kaiser joins some of the people making it possible.
Hillview Recreation Department, 298 Prairie Drive, Hillview, Kentucky provides the backdrop for this all-day event on Friday, Sept. 8 and Saturday, Sept. 9.
On Friday, the event gets started with a survivor walk followed by a food truck invasion, vendors, carnival games and music.
On Saturday, Big Body Car Club sponsors a motorcycle show with a 100-mile charity ride.
"Ride to Ride out Cancer" raises money to help cancer patients who are currently receiving treatment for any type of cancer.
The money helps offset the everyday financial burdens families go through by paying bills such as, mortgage or rent, utilities, phone, and medical.
The group also maintains a food pantry and will deliver directly to the patient in need.

Tiffany Lynn Pucket
Rocking Cowboys
Kentucky Hillbilly
