Students and staff at will have an opportunity to participate in the second annual “Mini-Relay for Life” event to raise money for cancer research.  Proceeds will be donated to the American Cancer Society.

Thanks to the enthusiasm and efforts of our students and families, last year’s event raised over $6,000, school officials said.

This year, Park Campus students will raise awareness and money during this week through October 21. This will include an opportunity to purchase T-shirts at school and to purchase PARK PINWHEELS as a signature spin on the ACS luminary bags.
