The 2004 Barker Relay went off with a bang - literally!!!  
What a success it was despite the nasty turn mother nature tied to throw at us.  The entertainment was exceptional.  Entertainment Chair, Jane Dent, outdid herself lining up spectacular people to entertain us.  3 different radio stations were there, as well as Buster Bison himself, John Murphy, the voice of the Bills, as you can see from the Event Schedule - a busy night was planned.  Unfortunately - I don't have any photos of the entertainment - if you have any you'd be willing to share I'd love to post them.

So far we have raised over $165,000.00 and the donations are still coming in,  If your team has additional donations, you may send them to:

American Cancer Society
Attn: Deb Bogdan
101 John James Audubon Parkway
Amherst NY 14228
- or - 
Drop them off at Pizza, Wings, & Things & Jacki or Judy will hand deliver them.  * Be sure your name & your Team name is on the envelope so your team gets credit. 

The breakfast has been rescheduled for next Sunday, June 6th at St. Pat's Church.  For more details click here:  

The Luminaria ceremony, along with a survivor tree planting, will be held in the summer at the Barker Village  park.  More details on that will be coming shortly. 

I have been busy uploading & scanning in the dozens of photos that I have received from Carol Ander & Darlene Lutz as well as the hundred or so I was able to take myself.  I have split them up into smaller team groups alphabetically by team name.  I have also created separate ones for survivors and caregivers you can find them on their respective pages. 

If you have any you would like to have added to the galleries, you can e-mail them to me at DDearborn@bark.wnyric.org. 

I would like to personally thank all of our Program Sponsors that have helped to make this Relay such a success.  Your patronage of their businesses will help to thank them for supporting such a worthy cause & help to continue the fight against cancer. 

We cannot forget to say thanks to those that gave of their time, skills and made other contributions to Relay - again - thank you!
