Lapeer East girls will ‘Volley for A Cure’

Once again the Lapeer East Volleyball team is hosting a “Volley For A Cure” match against Linden on Tuesday, October 19th, at Lapeer East High School. The game tips off at 7 pm.


This year the team will donate the money to the charities of their wishes: two families that had daughters play on the Lapeer East volleyball team.

Jessica Knapp’s mother, Kathy, lost her battle to breast cancer this past June. Evie, Kari, and Lisa Dinsmore’s dad, Steve, lost his battle to stomach cancer this past August. At the game the team will honor both families and the memory of each of their parents.

Sponsors of the fundraiser include Dr. Aaron Fisher, DDS, Dr. Albert Smith Jr. and family, Dr. John Yap, Lapeer Medical Associates, Mott Community College, Ray C’s and Speedy Screen Printing.

Volleyball team members will sell T-shirts for $10.00 each to raise funds for this occasion.
