American Cancer Society Benefit
During the week of March 12, 2012, 175 students in Kindergarten through 8th grade in the Weatherly Area School District participated in a mini-relay for life to benefit the American Cancer Society. An activity was held each day after school to promote physical activity. In addition, each child could donate a dollar or more for the ACS to purchase a die-cut in honor or memory of a loved-one touched by cancer.

The activities were lead by community fitness experts from the Greater Hazleton Health Alliance, Amanda Neidlinger- Zumba Instructor from River Run Healing Arts, and coach PJ Hadzick.
