High School North students on the Relay for Life committee visited students at the Wicoff Elementary School Extended Day Program. The Wicoff students in grades 1 to 3 decorated luminaries to be displayed at the upcoming Relay for Life race, a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. They created a purple handprint ribbon mural, colored superhero pictures, and played “Capture the Cancer Cell” in the gym.

The stations included healthy eating activities, information about cells in the body, and raised awareness for cancer, says Shannon O’Donnell, program administrator of WW-P Community Education.

The event was coordinated by the students from North and Luanne Sisselman, the extended day program site supervisor at Wicoff.
