The Relay for Life survivors dinner was held on Wednesday evening at the Davidson-Sheffer Gymnasium at Lincoln College. The invitation-only dinner is specifically for all cancer survivors. The meal was catered by Guzzardos, and this year there were three generations of the Guzzardo family on hand to prepare and watch over the dinner service. The serving line was manned by Relay for Life Volunteers. Guests enjoyed a time together in a relaxing atmosphere with a wonderful meal. Many also picked up their survivor t-shirts that they will wear today at the Relay for Life walking event held in the Jack Nutt Arena at Lincoln College.

Relay for Life of Logan County has over the years raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the American Cancer Society. In today’s edition be sure to read an article about how that money is put to use.

Today's Relay for Life event begins at 1 p.m. with opening ceremonies including a ribbon cut, team laps, and survivor laps. The day will end with luminaria names being read at 9 p.m. and the closing ceremony at 11 p.m. The event that is open to the public is an enjoyable time with fun and games around the room, a live auction, silent auction, live entertainment and dancing. Admission is free, but dropping a donation in the bucket at one of your favorite teams is always appreciated!
