Relay To ‘Paint The Town Purple’ Saturday

NORTH MANCHESTER — Join the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Wabash County in North Manchester and "Paint the Town Purple" on Saturday.

The meeting will begin at 10 a.m. at The Firehouse in downtown North Manchester.

Businesses, community organizations and individuals are asked to show their support for Relay for Life and help raise awareness for the fight against cancer by decking the town in purple – including homes, restaurants, businesses, meeting halls or other areas.

The goal is to get people to think “Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back!” when they see purple. Whether you use purple chalk to write an uplifting message, display a different reminder each day about important cancer screenings or dress a mannequin in Relay gear, it’s all about letting people know that there is hope.

Paint the Town Purple supports Relay For Life of Wabash County in North Manchester, an event to bring the community together in the fight against cancer. This year’s event will be from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. April 21 at the MCS Administration Building, 404 W. Ninth St., North Manchester.
