The race for life against cancer Remembering both the fighting and the fallen Colleen FlahertyFree Press Staff Writer The event would be nothing without the devoted volunteers, Whalen said.
“The volunteers for the relay are extremely dedicated. They work all year round to put this together,” she continued. There is also an overwhelming sense of support from the community and the local businesses. “(The people of Mankato) always step up to the challenge and help,” Fitzner said. However, there is still a need. “We’re still well short of our goal,” Whalen said. “We hope that when people think about this terrible disease, they realize that they can personally make an impact.” “I would encourage everyone to participate. Cancer will inevitably affect you. If not you personally, someone you love,” Fitzner said.
