CCMAC has been providing FREE Skin Cancer Screenings on the Boardwalk at Jones Beach State Park, and other locations around the New York metropolitan area since 2005. Early identification and early intervention saves lives. Many of those screened are referred to private physicians for more comprehensive examinations and follow up.
July, 2010: Jones Beach State Park
CCMAC in collaboration with Dr . Steve McClain of McClain Laboratories, Dr. Jennifer DeFazio Of Memorial Sloan Kettering, Hauppauge, StonyBrook Hospital Dermatology Department, Dr. Ted Daly of Garden City Dermatology and the Jones Beach State Park’s Department, CCMAC held their annual FREE Skin Cancer / Melanoma Screening on the Boardwalk at Jones Beach State Park.

July 2010: Wantagh Park Screening
CCMAC’s Free Skin Cancer Screening Series a Huge Success!
With the help of Senator Charles Fuschillo and Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano (pictured below) CCMAC concluded their Summer Skin Cancer Screening Series at Nassau County’s Wantagh Park, Wantagh, NY. Over 150 people were screened, ½ of which were referred for follow up regarding suspect lesions. CCMAC not only appreciates the support of Senator Fuschillo, but also that of his staff (pictured below) for getting the word out, and for all their onsite assistance. Last, and certainly not least CCMAC thanks the Wantagh Park Staff (pictured below) for their gracious hospitality and assistance in making this such a successful event.
