Annual Event

• In light of budget and staffing constraints, the CSB will no longer be coordinating its annual Tim Harmon Recovery Run 5K race. This popular event, held every June for the past 13 years, has raised over $185,000 to support research and efforts to prevent Hepatitis C, the disease that took the life of Tim Harmon, a much loved and respected member of the CSB staff. The CSB wishes to thank everyone who helped make this event such a great success!
