First National Bank's Energy tent a special Relay feature June 24
Visit www.relayforlife.org/bluffton for more details on Bluffton's Relay for Life held Friday and Saturday, June 24-25.
One way or another, we are all affected by cancer and raising awareness is crucial to finding a cure. In that spirit, the Bluffton community will host the 2011 American Cancer Society's "Relay For Life" on Friday and Saturday, June 24 and 25. The event will be held at Bluffton University's Salzman Stadium with the theme, "Birthdays for a Cure."
This event celebrates the many survivors in our own community, and remembers those who did not win their respective fights with cancer.
First National Bank - one of the Gold Sponsors for the event - will host a tent and Energy shot bar from 5:30-9:00 p.m., on Friday where assorted chilled energy shots along with wristbands and other giveaways will be passed out to support the cause.
With the phrase "Kasasa for the Cure" adorning bright pink T-shirts, the First National team should be very easy to spot in the crowd. Kasasa is First National's new brand of free checking accounts that offer consumer-first benefits and services.
"This kind of event really puts things in perspective," say Brendon Matthews, Senior Vice President of First National Bank. "It's easy to get caught up in our day-to-day lives and forget that people all around us face the challenges of cancer. "Birthdays for a Cure" is a wonderful way for us to show our support on a local level."
