Last Tuesday was a night filled with love, hope, remembrance, and community. Our Cancer Night was about so much more than volleyball. We came together to honor those we have lost, those who are still fighting, and those who have reached remission. Every story matters, every fight deserves to be recognized, and every family deserves to feel the love of their community.
Most importantly, we had the honor of recognizing one of our very own Bulldogs, Kolby, and his family. Because of the incredible generosity of our community, we raised OVER $4,000 to support Kolby and his family! There are no words to fully express how grateful we are for everyone who helped make this possible.
A HUGE thank you to everyone who donated, everyone who showed up to support this special evening, and everyone who patiently weathered a tornado warning and an ultimately canceled match. The weather may not have cooperated, but the love and support shown that night were undeniable. Even when the evening didn’t go as planned, the purpose behind it remained bigger than the game.
To our seniors, we know how heartbreaking it was to have your final home match cut short by the storms. You deserved every moment of that final home game, and it is okay to be sad that it didn’t end the way you imagined. But there is also something incredibly special about knowing your final home match was part of an evening that made a real difference in someone’s life. You helped create memories, raise support, and remind a family that they are not fighting alone. That is a legacy worth being proud of.
And a special shoutout to Chrystan Ferrell, who showed up completely unasked to capture photos of this meaningful evening. Thank you for giving us memories we can hold onto and look back on for years to come. Your thoughtfulness means more than you know!
Kearney, thank you for showing up, opening your hearts, and reminding us what it means to be a community. We are so proud to be part of a town that rallies around its own when it matters most.
Kolby, we are cheering for you every step of the way. You and your family have a whole community behind you!
What a special community we get to be apart of!
