Sherie Wright Pink Night, organized annually by the Morgan High School Volleyball Team during their match against Ben Lomond High School, took place on Thursday, Oct. 3. Every year, this event brings together the community to raise thousands of dollars which is donated to Huntsman Cancer Research.
Money is raised through a treat table, silent auction, and a quilt auction. This year one of the quilts sold $1,000 with three others selling for hundreds more. Totals raised for the night will be in the November monthly.
Kathy Howa and Julie Preece were recognized for their courageous battle with cancer. All cancer survivors in the crowd were recognized for their courage with a round of applause after which a moment of silence honored those who lost their battle with cancer.
Sherie Wright lost her battle with cancer on March 10, 2012. Sherie was an educator with a great love for Volleyball. She could be found in the gym at any given practice and never missed a game. She is always remembered. λ
