The Daisy Drop is a free event for the community. Cancer Navigators’ staff will be set up near the Courtyard by Marriott distributing complimentary daisies to drop in the Oostanaula River in honor or in memory of loved ones affected by cancer.

Parking for both events will be available at and around Historic Barron Stadium.
Cancer Navigators was established in 2006 to serve as a complement to the medical expertise of cancer care providers by guiding those in northwest Georgia and northeast Alabama affected by cancer toward a better understanding of diagnosis and care while connecting them with needed resources.
