Coaches versus Cancer 2013

The North Iowa Conference put on it's annual Coaches versus Cancer night on Friday. This is a group effort to help raise money to cure cancer.  There are four host sites, this year West Hancock was one of them.  We played Lake Mills and there were several activities to help raise money and awareness for cancer.

Our elementary, middle and high schools all brought in change to help raise funds.  The elementary was the winner by a long shot.  Nice work for our little eagles.

The tumbling recital held before Christmas donated all of their proceeds.  Thanks to Angie Johnson for her coordination of this event.

We had a silent auction and sold many items.  Thank you to all the people who donated items.  Thank you to all the people that bought the items.  Thanks to Mrs. Verbrugge, Carol Madsen and Brenda Smith for helping with the silent auction.

T-shirts were sold leading up to the event and buckets were passed among the crowds at halftime.  Thanks to all who supported the cause that way.

Mr. Peterson and the conference Athletic Directors are the people who put this on every year.  Thank you to them for their efforts.

Our site alone raised $5241.63.  Once we get a conference total we will let you know.  It was a great event and our community did a great job supporting it!

The final numbers have came in and our conference raised over $26,000.00!  What a great event!
