GREEN BAY, Wis. — The American Cancer Society, survivors, and caregivers joined together on Saturday to pull for a cure.

At Austin Straubel Airport, groups worked together to pull a 93,000 pound fire truck.

The goal is to prove that cancer can be defeated when people work together.

A survivor said it's a special day to see all of the support.

"It brings everybody together," Robert Mohar said. "Survivors, and just people that care, they come out to support the people that mean something to them, and I can tell you that it's very meaningful to the survivors and the people fighting now."

The event also featured other activities at Austin Straubel.
