A new event for Relay for Life this year is a Hat Decorating Contest. Each type of cancer is designated by a specific color; for example, pink designates breast cancer. Decorate a hat using the color of a type of cancer; wear the hat July 30 to Relay. The hats can be donated for a Silent Auction at Relay. Hats will be displayed in the Community Center starting at 3:00 on July 30. Bids will be placed inside the Community Center. Winners will be announced that night and winning bids should be paid that night.
For more information on the Hat Decorating Contest, please contact Kelli DePriest at 931-593-2020.
So come on out and bring the whole family for a night of fun, and help support this very important cause.
