Syracuse, NY (February 17, 2016) – St. Joseph’s Health has chosen to cancel “On the Snow” at Song Mountain Resort in Tully on Saturday, February 27th, from 9AM-3PM. The decision to cancel the daylong ski and snowboarding fund-raising event was made due to weather and unpredictable skiing conditions.

“The decision to cancel the event did not come easily,” said Betsy Bedigian, hospital spokesperson. “We want to express our gratitude to the sponsors and community for their support of our breast cancer program and the patients who face the challenges of this sometimes life-threatening disease.”

St. Joseph’s will refund all contributions made to the event. For more information, please call Pam Kleine at the St. Joseph's Hospital Foundation at 315-703-2137.
