TeamCOPC is a group of physicians, employees and friends of Central Ohio Primary Care dedicated to fighting cancer by volunteering or riding in Pelotonia. Since 2010, teamCOPC has raised over $2.1 million for cancer research!
Together...
From our beginner educational sessions to our fundraising events to our weekly group training rides, teamCOPC is a team first, and nobody is alone on this team!
Better than we could alone...
The true core tenet of the Pelotonia community. We will always accomplish more as a group than we could individually.
We will END CANCER!
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, with support from Pelotonia, has already made many advances in prevention, early detection and cures. Pelotonia is successfully changing and saving lives!
It's time to register for Velvet!
The Lee Budin Memorial Velvet Ice Cream Ride and Picnic will be on Saturday, July 15. This is a fantastic ride and event, and now honors our dear friend and teamCOPC co-founder, Dr. Lee Budin. Many volunteer opportunities also are available. Please click here for details and to register.
teamCOPC 2023 is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Lee Budin
Lee Budin was a co-founder of teamCOPC. He was a leader, a visionary and a dear friend to many of us. In 2020, Lee was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and despite a tough fight for nearly 2 years, he passed away in October, 2022.
We will miss Lee's smile and laughter, his leadership, and his commitment to bettering those around him.
We will continue to ride in his memory, and we have dedicated our efforts this year in Lee's honor.
One Goal
Who can join teamCOPC? ... Anyone!
TeamCOPC is not just for the physicians and staff of COPC. We are happy to welcome anyone who shares our passion to fight cancer through Pelotonia. We are growing all the time, and we welcome new volunteers and riders.
