Supporting a Noble Cause
On
Friday, June 13th, I had the honor of participating in Cape Ann’s 14th
annual Relay for Life walk. The fundraiser, held at the O’Maley Middle School
in Gloucester, brought together hundreds of enthusiastic and dedicated walkers,
volunteers, and supporters. The work of this year’s participants raised over
$40,000—and counting! The proceeds of Friday’s walk will go toward efforts of
finding a cure for cancer and aiding the patients and their families currently
fighting the disease. Although Friday’s weather conditions were gloomy, the
positive spirit of the community persisted, making for an inspiring event.
