Park Will Host Bark For Life By Ann Mead Ash
With the exception of a few laps walked by Keystone Pet Enhanced Therapy Services (KPETS) canines, dogs are not allowed to take part in Relay For Life events. But some Relay For Life team members wanted to hold an event where dogs could be featured. “Relay For Life (fundraisers are typically held) at a high school, and you can’t take your dog,” lamented Angie Woolf, a member of the Misfit Bankers team. “But more often than not, a dog is someone’s caregiver. (Dogs) comfort you whether you have a cold or cancer.” To celebrate the important bond between humans and pets, especially during illness, Woolf has organized American Cancer Society Bark For Life events for the past several years. The 2018 Bark For Life of Lancaster will take place on Saturday, Oct. 6, from
10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Manheim Township Park, 209 Petersburg Road, Neffsville. The event honors the lifelong contributions of canines to cancer survivors. Bark For Life came to Lancaster six years ago when the Captain Morgan Relay For Life team held the first event. When the Relay For Life Leadership Team took charge of the event, other Relay For Life teams began to participate. Bark For Life supports the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Lancaster. Funds raised through the events helps support the American Cancer Society’s mission to save lives by funding research, supporting education efforts, and providing free information and critical services for cancer patients. “My (Relay For Life) team is the Misfit Bankers,” explained Woolf. “But for Bark For Life, we are the Misfit Barkers.” According to Woolf, registration on

When organizers of the Friendship Community 2018 fall banquet were searching for a keynote speaker, one staff member remembered that a friend of hers had heard “Chewbacca Mom” speak. “(The friend had) said, ‘This person is great, and she has a great message,’” recalled Kyle Gamble, marketing assistant at Friendship Community. “We were looking for someone to bring laughter and joy with a faith background,” added Gamble, noting, “This is a speaker (who) will be different from those we have had in the past.” Candace Payne, also known as “Chewbacca Mom,” filled the bill for Friendship organizers, who have engaged her to speak at the annual Friendship Community banquet on See Friendship Community pg 4
