The meeting was designed to introduce the many volunteers by committee and team and to address any questions, as well as, brainstorm for the Darke County Relay for Life event which will be held at Heritage Park in Versailles on July 18th and 19th.
Committee chairs were formally announced as:
- Accounting Chair: Diane Elsas
- Survivor Chair: Joyce Johnson
- Luminaria Chair: Michelle Alt
- Logistics Chair: Terrie Oestreicher
- Food Chair: Deb Kenworthy
- Publicity Chair: Kathy Magoto
- Sponsorship Chair: Vicki Everetts
- Mission Chair: Carrie Drees
- Online Chair: Lynne Mangen
Each committee consists of a supportive group of volunteers, but new volunteers are always welcomed. Volunteers from all across Darke County work together bringing their personal stories and vision to the fundraising efforts of the Relay event. Volunteers are our neighbors, friends, and relatives who desire to work together to raise awareness, network with cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, family and friends and help in the fight against cancer. The funds raised go to the American Cancer Society to fight against all types of cancer, as well as, provide support programs.
