As previously mentioned, for the first time ever, Brehm sponsored a Relay For Life team. Over the weekend, students, faculty and staff participated in the 12 hour event which included a wide range of activities including dance groups, a ponytail drive, survivor stories, bagpipers, luminaria, Battle of the Bands, contests, Drive-In movie and more. For first time competitors, Brehm did amazingly well. The initial goal was to raise $1000 and a team theme to "imagine a life without cancer." The team more than doubled the goal and was able to raise $2063. Brehm was awarded with The American Cancer Society Bronze Team Award and Community Rookie Team of the Year!
A special congratulations goes out to those who supported Brehm's Relay For Life efforts, especially the students who participated in events.
Relay For Life of Jackson County-Carbondale was held at Carbondale High School. Thanks to participants, all groups collectively raised more than $100,000 for the fight against cancer.
GO TEAM BREHM!!
