On Sunday, June 19th, the CMF hosted its inaugural beach volleyball tournament in Toronto. The event was a huge success: 12 teams, great food, fun prizes, free massages and stellar sun tans! Everyone had an awesome time and a large amount of money was raised to support mesothelioma education and awareness.  Many thanks to our participants and corporate sponsors. We hope to see everyone out in the sand again next summer!
