Swimming and diving team's Breast Cancer Awareness fundraiser is underway

Four of the five seniors on the team hold ribbons for sale: Julie Bushard, Tiana Molitor, Sarah Nelson, Elise Zenzen.

The Mainstreeters will have Breast Cancer Awareness Night at their final home meet of the season next Tuesday against Holdingford starting at 6 p.m.


For the second year in a row, members of the girls' swimming and diving team are selling paper cancer awareness ribbons on which you can write names of loved ones affected by the disease (a survivor or a loved one who has passed).

Ribbons cost $1 and can be purchased from any team member. T-shirts are also for sale.

Last year the pool walls were lined with ribbons, and over $2,200 was raised for the cause. Three goals are in mind this year: (1) Raise $3,000 and the captains of the team (5 seniors) will get a pie in the face; (2) reaching $3,500 and coaches James Schreiner and Michelle Winters will take a "pie in the face", (3) if $4,000 is raised, secondary Dean of Students Don Peschel will take a "pie in his face" on top of the coaches doing it.

Come out to support two great causes next Tuesday: the girls' swimming and diving team and their cancer awareness fundraiser!
