Bertie Relay For Life - Great Success!
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Bertie County was held starting yesterday and ending today at Bertie High School. It was a long night but a success in every way.
Opening Ceremonies were held Friday night, followed by cancer survivors making a ceremonial lap. Linda Speller gave the Survivor Message.

Numerous musical groups entertained including Southwestern Middle School Choir and Trinity Gospel Ensemble. Ed Pittman provided music in between the groups as D.J. At midnight, Karaoke was started, and the enthusiasm ran for hours, not ending until 5:30AM. (So I was told, as I can't say I was there!)
