Creating Dreams...
                           with the 2008 Relay For Life Tour
March 29

Cook Pavilion on the University of Nebraska Campus.  Our first time at a Relay held by college students.  They know how to have a party.  A very enjoyable
night and it was also the first time Betty and I walked together during the caregivers lap.

Betty and I went to various American Cancer Society events in 2008 spreading
the word about
Purple Power.  This page is a picture diary of our road trip.

Gage County Relay held at the county fairgrounds in Beatrice, NE.  A cold, rainy night.  Read my poem Celebrate, Remember, and Fight Back.  As the night
wore on more people seemed to be in buildings than out on the track.  Just a very cold and raw night.  Made my first donation through the sale of
Purple
Power.  
$257.56 was donated in the fight against cancer.

Jefferson County Relay held at the city park in Fairbury, NE.  A hot, muggy, very humid night.  Once again, I read my poem Celebrate, Remember, and Fight
Back.
 $220.57 was donated by the end of the night.
