Cancer Society.
The Lincoln Jaycees are a not-for-profit organization serving Lincoln and the

the areas of business development, management skills, individual training,
community service and international connections. Membership meetings are the
third Thursday of each month, 7 p.m., at the Lincoln Jaycees Center, 325 S.
Chicago St., and are open to everyone.

Whether or not a survivor has received a special notice and
invitation, all survivors are invited to a reception and survivor
buffet, compliments of John Guzzardo, starting at 4:30 p.m. Friday,
June 17, in the old gym of Lincoln College, on Ottawa Street. The
Lincoln Strings will entertain.
Survivors are encouraged to arrive early to register and receive
their 2011 survivorship pin and, if a first-year survivor, to
receive a Relay for Life medallion. Those who have a medallion are
encouraged to wear it to the survivor buffet. Survivors will also be
given a special survivor T-shirt, and survivor shirts of past years
will also be available for those who missed getting theirs.
The welcome and opening ceremony will begin at 6 p.m. Following
the opening ceremony, survivors will walk the survivor lap, which
officially begins the Relay for Life. Then the caregivers will walk
the next lap before everyone joins them.
The luminaria ceremony will be at 9 p.m. on Friday. Luminaria are
available for $10 from any team member or at the event until the
hour of the ceremony.
Entertainment and activities will continue throughout the night
until 6 a.m. Saturday, which will also feature the final walk around
the track.
This event is not just for survivors -- everyone is welcome to
help make a reality out of this year's theme, "Fighting Cancer
Around the World."
The organizers are looking forward to celebrating with you as
together we work to make more birthday celebrations possible around
the world with the cure of this disease. For more survivor
information, please call Tonita Reifsteck, chair, at 732-9796 or
217-855-1645.
