Amador County - Teams and committees are now forming for the 6th Annual Amador County Camp Out For Cancer, to take place on September 12 and 13 at Argonaut High School Stadium. “You don't have to camp out to participate, you can form a team, or join a team and then enjoy the talents of many local musicians who donate their time to entertain the volunteers who participate!” said Ginger Rolf, Board Director of the Amador STARS program. Teams take turns manning their campsite and walking the track all to support those whose lives have been touched by cancer. There are two ceremonies, the Survivor Celebration and the Illumination Ceremony which honor all those who have taken the cancer journey. Proceeds from this event go to the Amador STARS, a local non profit organization that offers Support, Transportation and Resource Services to local cancer patients and their families. Funds raised stay in our local community except for a small percentage that is dedicated to cancer research. Call the STARS at 223-1246 to get more information. The Amador STARS new office is located in the new Safeway shopping center, two doors east of Safeway. Staff Report This email address is being protected from spambots.
