BOARDMAN — The Northern Ohio Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s 15th annual Mahoning/Trumbull Great Strides walk is Sunday at Masters Pavilion at Boardman Park. Check-in is at 1 p.m. and the walk begins at 2 p.m.

The walk was moved from September to May to coincide with National Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month. Great Strides is a national walk campaign that generates funds for cystic fibrosis research, education and care.

Locally, the foundation hopes to raise some $45,000. The event also includes family friendly activities, including a live concert by local groups.
