Fireflies fired up for Relay for Life
To the Editor,
The Northern Cass County Relay for Life will be held in Walker on July 29-30 at the Walker High School track. Opening ceremonies will begin at 6 p.m. and we will continue to walk and have activities until 6:00 a.m. Some of the activities will include entertainment, a dunk tank, a silent auction, kids' games, walking tacos, fry bread, soup, cookies, Memorial Gardens, Prayer Tent and so much more!
As usual, our team is not waiting until the Relay to raise funds to work toward a cure! We will be having our second car wash on Saturday, July 2nd from 10-1:00 by the Ace Hardware store in Longville. Please bring your dirty (or not so dirty) cars over and be sure to tell your friends! We will also have a float in the amazing Longville 4th of July Parade. Like last year, we will have team members walking the route with butterfly nets and American Cancer Society pails to collect your donations (please make checks payable to American Cancer Society). We will also have some additions to our float to show that there is hope after the word "cancer" enters your life!
The silent auction is always a popular site and we anticipate many amazing items and services will be available. If you would like to donate anything to the silent auction, please contact a member of our team as soon as possible. Our team members are Lori Daudt, Cathy Drilling, Ken Drilling, Rita Fedalen, Brittany Frederick, Ginger Minske, Karen Nelson, Kris Nelson, Karen Osmundson, Heather Udean, Jill Welk, and Morgan Welk, as well as many honorary team members (friends and family) who have helped us in so many ways.
With your help, last year we raised a staggering $12,682.41!! There are few that have not had cancer touch their lives in one way or another. We are honored to join with you in providing hope after diagnosis, in giving comfort for patients, caregivers, families, and friends, and in fighting along with you to find a cure.[[In-content Ad]]
