“We are working on plans for an event on the courthouse square in Carthage on Saturday, June 4, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.” explained Kris Pilkington, event chairman for HCFC. The date coincides with the running of the Strawberry Strut, earlier that day.
“Our goal is to raise money for these two wonderful groups, to celebrate cancer survivors, and to honor those who are in treatment or have been lost to cancer,” Pilkington said.
There will be food, entertainment, activities for kids, a car show, silent auction, “Hearts of Hope”, and more.
