Over 100 pies were donated from local businesses and celebrities that were auctioned off at the 19th annual 103.9 WLEN Pie Auction. $2,572 was raised for the Lenawee American Cancer Society Relay For Life.

Thank you to our pie auction sponsors: Adrian Lock and Bike, Culvers of Adrian, Kapnick Orchards and the Committee to Elect Catherine Sala, Probate Judge. Also, a special thank you to County National Bank for donating $2.50 for every pie sold up to $250 to support Lenawee Relay For Life.

What exactly is Relay For Life? Their website, acsevents.org, describes Relay For Life as: “… a team fundraising event where team members take turns walking around a track or designated path. Each event is 6-24 hours in length and each team is asked to have a member on the track at all times to signify that cancer never sleeps. Cancer patients don’t stop because they’re tired, and for one night, neither do we. Each team sets up a themed campsite at the event and continues their fundraising efforts by collecting donations for food, goods, games, and activities. This money will count towards their overall team fundraising goal.”

A special thanks to our listeners for once again supporting the Lenawee American Cancer Society Relay For Life.
