The Lyle Area Cancer Team would like to thank everyone who helped in anyway to make the 2015-2016 cancer fundraising year such a huge success. Your generous donations of time, money, and talent are greatly appreciated by those who want to see a cure for this horrible disease. We have seen breakthroughs in the research to find a cure. This, along with the continued support for LAC and its efforts gives us hope that one day we can crush out cancer.

We would like to say thank you to everyone who cycled, ate BBQ ribs and chicken, drank lemonade, bought Pampered Chef products, attended the Bash, rode a motorcycle, pulled the float, threw out candy, ate sweet corn, sewed, scrapbooked, attended Oktoberfest, ate braunschweiger, played pool, ate at any of the events, donated to any of the events, sponsored any event, attended the auction, tasted root beer and beer, got a haircut or massage, recycled their cans in the pink dumpsters, made donations through Paypals or cash donations, and those who sold or bought iPads, cash drawing, or Harley tickets. We would like to also say thank you to the City of Lyle and the Lyle American Legion club for the use of their buildings and their continued support; to the Agri Steel crew, city employees, and the Legion representatives for all their hard work with cleaning, setting up, and tearing down for the auction area. A big thank you to the person who took over cleaning the bathroom. Thank you to Little Miss Lyle, the National Honor students, and any other youth groups that helped out through the year. Thank you to all those who donated food and money to support the events.

Finally, but certainly not of any least importance, is a huge thank you to all the volunteers throughout the year who donated time before, during, and after any event. Your hard work and dedication to raising money to find a cure is absolutely amazing!

Everyone is welcomed to join us for the annual potluck on Sunday, Feb. 21 at the Lyle American Legion. Social hour starts at 4 p.m. with potluck to follow.
