American Cancer Society Relay for Life

Tillie Kaufmann from Emmanuel would like to reminder everyone of the upcoming Shenandoah County Relay for Life event on Sept. 10 at the County Park in Maurertown from 6 to 11:30 p.m. Teams are wearing crazy hats this year and the schedule of events includes Opening Ceremony at 6 p.m., Survivor/Caregiver Walk at 6:30 p.m., Luminaria Ceremony at 9 p.m., along with music and food. Everyone is invited to attend. The Shenandoah County RfL teams have a new fundraiser this year, a county-wide cookbook with recipes from the different teams and individuals. The cookbooks are $10. Please let Tillie know if you if you would like to purchase a book (or more). She is using them as gifts. Also, if you would like to purchase any luminarias (white or gold paper bags with candles inside): white bags $5 each in Memory or Honor of   person’s name    and gold bags with stars $25 each in Memory or Honor of     (person’s name). I will write the information on each luminaria purchased and they’ll be set out at the Luminaria Ceremony. If you would like to support Relay for Life and would prefer to give a monetary donation, please let Tillie know. All checks, whether for luminarias or donation, should be written to “American Cancer Society” with a note that it is for “Relay for Life”. Tillie is happy to come pick up donations. You can contact her at  540-325-2563.
