22 THE CHARBONNEAU VILLAGER Charbonneau Men’s Club By JOHN MCLAIN Don’t forget your sunscreen Cancer and the community of golf at Charbonneau Sunscreen and ear- ly detection are a must for golfers at MCLAIN Charbonneau. We love the sun, especial- ly those who go to the desert in the winter. Please, use sunscreen, not just once in the morning before golf, but again just before playing golf. I am a cancer survivor a couple of times over. My wife is a cancer survivor, too. Get your annual checkups. Early detection is the single most important factor to cancer survival. Each year, in September, the Niners host the annual Pink Ball Tournament, a fundraising event for cancer research. The Men’s Club recently passed the hat to raise over $400 for the purchase of wine (by our own Ron Leeper), which is sold and raffled off at the luncheon event that follows the golf tournament. We all support the research effort to find a cure for cancer. There are many types of cancer that afflict our mature membership (OK, so we are an older crowd) at Charbonneau (a recent sur- vey indicated 75% of residents are re- tired from fulltime employment). If there are men out there who have not October 2019 yet had their regular colonoscopy, do it now. Don’t wait until the discovery is too late for easy solutions — later dis- covery means chemo and a poor prog- nosis. Get checked for skin cancer, co- lon cancer and any other cancer your doctor thinks you should have at your age and medical history. Early detec- tion is the single most important factor to cancer survival. In a recent Golf Digest article, golf re- porter David Owen wrote, “Golfers have always been at greater risk of de- veloping skin cancer than people who never go outside or visit tanning par- lors, but even among nongolfers the in- cidence has been rising for years, worldwide. Studies cited by the Skin Cancer Foundation have shown that, in the United States, cases of nonmelano- ma skin cancer increased by 77 percent from 1994 to 2014, and that there will be 7.7 percent more melanoma cases this year than there were in 2018.” Early de- tection is the single most important fac- tor to cancer survival.
