SPECIAL
EVENTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
Relay For
Life, a team event to fight cancer
Logan County will
host the sixth annual Relay For Life at the Laughlin Center at
Lincoln Christian College and Seminary on May 9 and 10. The Relay
For Life is the American Cancer Society's signature event. It is
truly a celebration of cancer survivorship and an outstanding way to
honor those who have triumphed over cancer and to remember those we
have lost to the disease.
Cancer is the second
leading cause of death in Illinois. In 2003 it is expected that
57,160 Illinoisans will be diagnosed with cases of cancer. This is
equivalent to 157 new cases every day and almost seven new cases
every hour. Approximately 25,610 Illinoisans will die of cancer this
year, about 70 people a day.
There are about eight
million people alive today who have had some type of cancer. Every
year more and more people survive cancer. This is especially true of
children with cancer because of the new treatments and technology.
Last year the Relay
For Life raised over $14,000,000 in Illinois. Of this amount, 60
percent stayed in our state.
By forming a team
from your company, church, school, neighborhood or other group, you
will not only be part of a great community event, but you will raise
funds to improve the quality of life for cancer patients today and
the outlook for those diagnosed in the future. We hope to raise
$65,000 from this year’s event. To reach our goal, we need your
support!
This year’s
festivities officially begin at 8 p.m. Friday and conclude Saturday
at noon. The overnight fund-raiser helps to support the
organization’s programs of cancer research, education, patient
services and advocacy.
This year’s gold
sponsors for the event are CEFCU, Family Medical Center, Lincolnland
Communication/Cingular, Wal-Mart, and Lincoln Christian College and
Seminary.
Local co-chairs are
Mary Ellen Martin and Kathy Blaum.
If you are interested
in learning more about this important event, please call 732-9372,
732-3349 or
1 (800) 252-5302.

Donate blood Monday
Patients in our local
hospitals depend on healthy community members to supply the blood
they desperately need to stay alive. Blood is a renewable resource.
Every three seconds someone needs a blood transfusion of some kind.
To accommodate this constant usage, community members must
continually help replenish this supply. Since a donor can only
donate whole blood every 56 days, Central Illinois Community Blood
Center needs community members to come forward and help with this
lifesaving effort.
Central Illinois
Community Blood Center provides all of the blood and blood products
for 12 area hospitals, including those in Lincoln, Hopedale and
Springfield. CICBC is a community-based blood center whose mission
is to provide a safe and adequate blood supply for patients in local
hospitals in a cost-effective manner. No other organization provides
blood in these hospitals.
When you donate blood
through CICBC, you help to keep a safe and adequate blood supply for
your community. You also help keep local medical costs under
control. When you donate your blood to an organization that takes it
out of the community, it can jeopardize local lives and raise local
medical costs.
Please help by
donating blood on Monday, March 3, between noon and 6 p.m. at the
Logan County Paramedics Association building, 1300 N. Postville
Road. CICBC will also bring information on platelet apheresis. If
there is enough interest, CICBC will bring apheresis machines to
Lincoln.
CICBC also provides
therapeutic phlebotomy at no charge for community members with
hereditary hemochromatosis. Anyone needing this service should call
ahead for an appointment. Please call Debbie Mast at 753-1530. This
procedure can be performed at the blood drive.
For more information on the blood drive,
call Terry Bell at 753-1530.
Boy Scout
chili and vegetable soup supper Friday
Boy Scout Troop 102
is having a chili and vegetable soup supper on Friday, Feb. 28. Hot
dogs will also be available. The all-you-can-eat supper will be
served from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church
in Lincoln.
The cost is $5 for
adults and $3 for children under 12.
Please support our Boy Scouts.
Free bowling
and meet the Lady Railers party
The LCHS girls junior
varsity and varsity basketball teams along with the Alcohol,
Tobacco, and Other Drugs Task Force invite you to a free afternoon
of bowling.
The event will be at
Logan Lanes from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, March 2. There will be free
food, soft drinks and educational materials.
Come out and meet the Lady Railers!
Parents and teachers, new website
helps explain terrorism to kids
The Federal
Emergency Management Agency has just posted a section titled
"National Security Emergencies" on "FEMA for Kids." The new section
helps explain terrorism, biological and chemical weapons and how to
prepare for these threats. In light of the newly elevated
threat level, this site is even more important. Go to
http://www.fema.gov/kids/nse/.
Library
hosts children's programs
Lincoln Public Library began its winter and
spring programming schedule on Feb. 3. The library offers
a story time for preschool-age children on Monday mornings at 10, Monday
evenings at 6 and Tuesday mornings at 10. Also on Tuesday mornings is a
lap-sit story time for infants to 2 years old.
There are two special book clubs for
children in third grade to sixth grade. The first Tuesday night of
each month at 6 is an American Girl Book Discussion Group. The
second Tuesday night of each month at 6 is a Special Investigators
Book Club. These clubs will meet in February, March and April.
Craft times for children in first grade
to sixth grade have taken on a new look. The library will offer
several craft times each month on the days that school is off or the
children get out early. Please come by the library and pick up a
schedule of these events.
The Student-Saver Homework Center
continues to be open Monday through Thursday from 3:15 to 5 p.m. For
more details, brochures are available at the library.
Please visit

People
all across this country and, in fact, around the world, claim roots in
Logan County. They have very interesting stories to tell, and some of them
like to connect with those of us who stayed at home. Logan County Diaspora
publishes the stories of former Logan County residents. With their
permission, we also include their e-mail addresses so that old friends
might be reunited. If you wish to be part of the Logan County

Family
and Friends in the Armed Forces
|
It
is a time like no other. Since Sept. 11, 2001, we are a changed
nation. Individually, our daily sensitivity toward whom and what we have
in our lives has been heightened. We are more conscious and
appreciative, first about those we love and see every day.
Next, we have a newfound appreciation for those who risk their
lives every day as rescue workers and protectors of life and
property in our communities. We also now think more about our
military men and women who are committed to serve and protect
our country. Many are away engaged in battle, some are in
waiting to go, all are ready to lay their lives on the line in
defense of our freedom.
Friends
and relatives serving in the armed forces are listed here so we might all hold them in our thoughts, prayers and well
wishes. If you know of other friends and relatives serving (they
need not be from Logan County),
please send the information to ldneditor@lincolndailynews.com. Along with the name, you are invited to include the branch of
service, current location of service, postal address, e-mail
address and relationship to the person providing the information (optional).
