User:Jpulver/Cancer Survivor Park

Currently there are 22 parks across North America, including the Omaha Cancer Survivor Park. Each park is unique to the city it is built in, but each have three elements in common. The first element is that each park has a sculpture, called “Cancer: there is Hope”, created by a Mexican sculptor. The sculpture has eight life size figures going through a maze, representing the journey one goes through cancer. The second element in the park is a "Positive Mental Attitude Walk" containing fourteen plaques. Four of the plaques are inspirational and ten plaques contain suggestions for fighting cancer.The third element in the park is a "Road to Recovery" that consists of seven plaques explaining what cancer is and some actions to take to overcome the disease. Other then the three components each park across the United States is totally unique, being designed to complement the local environment. <>
