We
start the week with the Logan County Sheriff's Office in pink shirts
- Sheriff Mark Landers is joined by administrative support staff,
deputies and correctional officers of the Logan County Jail.
In addition to showing their support for all cancer warriors, the
group is showing special love and support for a co-worker and his
wife. Jim and Stacy Crabtree learned in June that Stacy has breast
cancer.
Jim's co-workers are selling the shirts as a fundraiser. The profits
will go directly to the Crabtrees. The back of the shirts contain
the words ‘Crabtree Strong,’ a message to the family that they are
strong and that Stacy will come through this.

This week Monday through Wednesday, October 19th through 21st,
the Lincoln College Gents Male Mentoring Organization will
be conducting a fundraiser at Hot Frog Designs on Woodlawn
Road in Lincoln.
Members of the Gents will be "trapped" in a tent from noon
to 4 p.m. each day. Their only means of early escape is your
donation. The young men must raise $150 per day to escape
their entrapment.
The eighteen members of the group will be raising the money
for "Love Baskets" that will be given to local breast cancer
warriors. The baskets will consist of merchandise from local
businesses. |
We
encourage the community to come out and support the Gents, and
sincerely thank the Gents and Hot Frog Designs for this amazing show
of love and support.
