2019 Relay for Life

2019 RELAY FOR LIFE MAGAZINE LINCOLN DAILY NEWS JUNE 19, 2019 Page 79 associated with all cancers either as an accent or the focal point of the picture. Because the theme at the Relay of Life event this year is based on the woks of Dr. Seuss, there were also pictures that featured the well known ‘Cat in the Hat.” And of course, no event is complete without a little bit of food! Students had the opportunity to enjoy fresh bananas and bottled water as a snack for the morning. Again, the idea of eating healthy plays heavily into preventing cancer. The snack also plays along with the CATCH program food themes that include Go, Slow and Whoa. Go foods are fresh fruits and vegetables instead of sweets and fatty foods, and choosing water or fruit juices instead of sugary drinks and sodas. All in all, it was a great fun day with lots of activities and plenty of opportunities to learn about cancer prevention and living a healthy lifestyle. The Logan County Relay for Life event will be held June 15th at Lincoln Center on the campus of Lincoln College. The day will begin at 1 p.m. with a ribbon cut and the survivor walk and will end at approximately 11 p.m. with a brief closing ceremony. The public is invited to attend the Relay event that will include a live auction, silent auction and other offerings hosted by the individual teams.
