Relay For Life- Oregon-Davis
There is nothing more touching then kids doing great things for other kids. Oregon-Davis has several students and staff with cancer. The kids can see actual people battling this terrible disease. They wanted to do something to honor those special to them. They took place in a walk and also made bags that they placed along the track.
If you want to do something special for people you know that are battling cancer take part in the Starke County Relay For Life. It will take place May 31st-June 1st. 12pm to 6am, at the Starke Co. Fair Grounds Hamlet, IN.
Opening Ceremony 3:00pm Luminaria Ceremony 9:00pm If you would like more info and to sign up go to www.events.cancer.org/rflstarkecoin My family will be there supporting the organization in memory of Grandma Marjorie and Grandpa Schulz. I will also get a luminary in honor of an 8th grader that I recently met Christina Rotering, Grover & Ann Goetz, and for Randy Pausch who has inspired me. If you want to be inspired by Randy too check his ”last lecture” out on you tube… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo He is a professor who is dying from pancreatic cancer. His lecture isn’t about cancer but about achieving your dreams. Okay, I talk to much…here are some images from the OD Relay for Life.
In case you can’t read it the back says “In honor of Jackie Cooper: The best friend I have ever had.” Jackie is a young boy that has been battling cancer.
