*Free Registration in the Library* About the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society: The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is a national voluntary health agency dedicated to curing leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and to improving the quality of life of patients and their families. Today, the Society supports the following major programs: research, patient services, public and professional education, advocacy and community services. About Light the Night: The Society’s major fundraiser is their annual ‘Light the Night Walk’ (www.lightthenight.org). Light the Night is an evening fun walk to celebrate and commemorate the lives of people touched by cancer. Walkers hold illuminated balloons-white for survivors, red for supporters-and light the night with hope. Prior to the walk, a carnival-like atmosphere is created. There will be food, music, games, a Chinese Auction, and guest speakers- where friends, family members, neighbors, co-workers and others come together to demonstrate their support for cancer patients. Anyone can take part- children, adults and seniors are all welcome. This is a casual Walk with no fitness requirements.
