The students in practical nursing, business and office technology, Ingalls and workforce participated in the event, along with faculty/staff from the Attala Center.
At the event Mandy Burrell recognized guests of honor were cancer survivors: Jerrelyn Jackson, a seven-year survivor; Connie Henderson, a six-year survivor; Amy Tucker, a survivor for less than a year and Missy Woodfin, who is currently undergoing treatment and awaiting surgery.

The Tahoe will travel to local schools, events, and businesses in Attala and surrounding counties to raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Every penny of the money raised goes to the American Cancer Society.
The Tahoe will be in Goodman for Homecoming on Oct. 24. Donations will be accepted, and people will have the opportunity to sign the Tahoe Homecoming activities. The truck will also take part in Major's Truck Expo in the grove between 10 a.m. and noon so plan on stopping by to help raise money for the American Cancer Society.
