🩷💜 Stick It to Cancer Week 💜🩷
Cancer has touched every one of us in some way, a parent, a child, a friend, a teammate, a coach, a neighbor. This week, we pause to honor, remember, and stand beside all those who are currently fighting, those who have fought before, and those we carry with us in our hearts every single day.
On Saturday, we will be raising funds for Codington County Cares Cancer Foundation, an organization that provides real assistance, real support, and real hope to cancer patients right here in our own community, when they need it most.
On the ice and in the stands, we will come together with raffle baskets, silent auction items, luminaries and an Inflatable Costume 50/50 Race during the 2nd Intermission of the Boys Varsity game, because sometimes joy, laughter, and togetherness are just as important as the fight.

Please join us all weekend, and especially Saturday, as we fill the rink with love, strength, and community. Every cheer, every ticket, every donation is a reminder that no one fights alone.

We can hardly believe we are celebrating 20 years of helping cancer patients right here in our community. It feels like just yesterday that a small group of us came together to talk about a major need in Codington County.
Each of us had a personal connection to cancer... We were survivors, had loved ones battling cancer, or we worked closely with patients. Through those experiences, we all recognized a missing piece in the cancer journey. While there were organizations raising money for research, there was little help available for those actively going through treatment. We believed no one should have to worry about paying a utility bill while fighting for their life and that belief is how Codington County Cares Cancer Foundation was born.
In the beginning, we used our own money to help cancer patients. Slowly, word began to spread. Donations started coming in, one at a time, and eventually we held our first major fundraiser ~ The Second Chance Prom. Because of that event and the continued generosity of this community, we have been able to help thousands of cancer patients in Codington County over the past 20 years.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for allowing us to continue this mission for two decades. We are so excited to celebrate with you Saturday, May 2nd at the Country Road Barn.

Lily Simon (Codington County Cares Junior Volunteer) and the Watertown Intermediate School Spirit Club shared their hearts in the most beautiful way~ by creating handmade cards for local cancer patients.
These thoughtful, heartfelt cards will be given to patients receiving assistance through Codington County Cares, and we know they’ll bring smiles and encouragement across our community 🩷
Thank you, WIS Spirit Club, for your kindness, compassion, and creativity!! YOU are truly making a difference! 🩷
