Spotlight Players come to Life...Relay for Life
|
Spotlight Players members gave up their time on a cool and sometimes wet Saturday morning to help raise money for the American Cancer Society and at the same time help promote our shows for next season. Canton's Relay for Life was yet another success and Spotlight turnout was great. In the Photo, from left, Dan McKane, Dave Cooper, Kim Elliot, Rachel Pearson, Pat McKane, Christopher Tremblay, Joe Cone, Lia De Biasi, Roy Sexton, Linda Pohl, Jennifer Nakhleh, Katherine Cone, Denise Staffeld, as well as Kelvin Elvidge (behind the camera) all had a great time in costume supporting Relay and promoting Spotlight Players all in the name of fun. More Photos of Relay for Life can be found on the Photos Page. |
