[May 17, 2013]The Logan County Relay For Life
brunch will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday at Lincoln College.
The cost of $8 for adults and $4 for children under 12 will benefit
the $1 million goal of this county before the end of this year's
event June 14-15. Tickets are available from Relay For Life leaders
or can be obtained at the door the day of the brunch.
This is also the 100th anniversary of the American Cancer
Society's effort to save lives and create more birthdays through
funds from this event and others, enabling research for a cure.
On Saturday, the Logan County Relay For Life teams will sell $10
luminaria bags at Lincoln IGA from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.
On Wednesday, these luminaria will draw attention to the 100th
anniversary as all of those purchased will be placed on the front
porch of each participating home and lit at sundown to show support
in helping to stamp out this disease. In 1913, when the American
Cancer Society began, the word cancer was not spoken and almost all
patients were lost to this dreadful disease.
