JR MEMORIAL CRUISE FOR A CURE

Saturday, June 27, 2026

A More Intimate JR Memorial. A Historic Milestone.

This year’s JR Memorial marks a meaningful new chapter at Indian Lake. With a new, smaller lakeside venue, we’re creating a more personal experience—one designed to celebrate relationships, recognize generosity, and honor an incredible milestone: $3 million raised in the fight against cancer.

While capacity is limited, the purpose has never been stronger.

Boat Pub Crawl – Starts at Noon

The day kicks off with the Boat Pub Crawl beginning at Cranberry Resort at noon, open to the public and all JR Memorial guests. Boats will travel across Indian Lake with stops including Acheson’s and Froggy’s, bringing everyone together for an unforgettable afternoon on the water for a great cause.

VIP Sponsor Party – 4:00 PM

At 4:00 PM, we will host a private VIP Sponsor Party at Cranberry Resort in a reserved section exclusively for our sponsors.
This private event will include live music, food, and drinks as a way to thank the sponsors who have helped make the JR Memorial and our $3 million milestone possible.

Cranberry Opens to All Guests – 5:00 PM

At 5:00 PM, Cranberry Resort opens to all guests for the evening celebration. We’ll be expanding the space with a Biergarten area to give everyone more room to gather, relax, and enjoy the night.

The evening will include:

• Live music from BJ and Billie
• Shucking Bubba Acoustic
• OSU Alumni Marching Band
• Live Auction
• Online & Silent Auction items
• Main stage performance from Shucking Bubba Deluxe

We’ll also feature the evening program including athlete introductions, survivor recognition, and live entertainment throughout the night.

A Year to Celebrate

This year may be a little smaller in size, but it’s one of the biggest years in JR Memorial history. Together, we’re not just hosting another event — we’re celebrating a community that has come together to raise $3 million for cancer research and support.

Thank you for being part of the JR Memorial, part of Indian Lake, and part of something that continues to make a difference year after year.
