Kickin’ It For Cancer
October 9, 2010
A Kickin’ Cancer event will be held today in Atmore — a project that started as a Molino woman battled cancer.
Sonja Luker of Molino was faced with the expenses and challenges of fighting cancer. Her best friend, Jessica Cloud, was by her side and helped organized a fundraiser last year at the Alabama Wing House. The event raised about $10,000 and the Kickin’ Cancer idea was born.
This year’s Kickin’ It In The Park will be held from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. at Tom Byrne Park in Atmore (just east of Food World on Lindberg Avenue).
Admission is $10 for adults and includes a meal by Alabama Wing House. Children under three are admitted free. There will be live entertainment, games for the kids and vendors of all kinds.

Thank you Jessica for being a good role model for all the kids around here
