Ada midget football and cheerleading teams hold Cancer Walk Oct. 12
The Ada midget football and cheerleading teams will hold their second annual Cancer Walk from 12:30-5:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 12 at War Memorial Park, Ada. The walk is open to anyone in the Ada community, including parents, students, coaches, and athletes.
Those wishing to participate may purchase a purple t-shirt or hoodie commemorating the event and all participants are encouraged to wear their t-shirts or hoodies during the walk. All proceeds of the walk and shirt sale will benefit Not By Choice Outreach in Kenton.
“By buying a purple t-shirt/hoodie, you are supporting an awesome cause and teaching the youth of our community to help those in need,” said Tim Campbell, Ada midget football head coach.
Not By Choice Outreach is located at 3 N. Detroit St., Kenton. The organization offers free services to cancer patients and their families. They provide head coverings, transportation, gas cards, and other support services to cancer patients.
In their 2013 Cancer Walk, the midget football and cheerleading teams raised $10,500, which was also donated to NBC Outreach.
Those interested in joining the walk, volunteering, or in learning more, should contact Tim Campbell at (419) 302-4781, Amy Durkin at (567) 712-5373, or Traci McClain at (419) 306-9908.
