Cancer survivors meet to promote Winneshiek County Celebration of Life

The annual Celebration of Life--an event to celebrate those who are winning their battles with cancer--will be held Friday, October 14th from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at T-Bock's Upstairs.

On Wednesday evening, one dozen Winneshiek County residents gathered in front of the courthouse to prove that it's possible to fight cancer and survive for 5 years, 10 year--even 20 years.
