Run Teal There's A Cure

Newk’s Eatery Texarkana and Kayla Mills hosted the Run TEAL There’s A Cure 5K on September 26 at Spring Lake Park.  Brad Taylor was the overall male winner, and Kasey Coggin was the overall female winner.  Lori Newcomb, co-founder of Newk’s Cares and wife of Newk’s Eatery’s co-founder and CEO, Chris Newcomb, was diagnosed with stage IIIC ovarian cancer in February 2013.  Unfortunately, Lori lost her physical battle to ovarian cancer on February 28, 2019, but her mission to help all women and all future women affected by the disease will continue to live on. Newk’s continues her mission of supporting ovarian cancer research and awareness.  In two weeks, Newk’s Eatery Texarkana raised $2,880 with proceeds from the event benefitting the Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance.
