Community Caring Conference served desserts at the Starlite Revue held on Tuesday, July 20th at Lincoln Park.  Josh Duffee and his Orchestra played that evening, and approximately 400 were in attendance.  People danced throughout the warm, summer night, and then were hungry for pies and cakes!  Thanks to everyone who participated in this wonderful event!

On Sunday, May 16th, Stand Against Cancer Advocate Nora Steele was part of an agenda at a presentation to the Hispanic community at the Moline Community Center.  The presentation included a lunch, speeches showing the women how to perform self-exams and telling them how important mammograms are in their lives, a musical performance, and a style show featuring spring fashions.  Give-aways were given to everyone with information about breast cancer awareness and breast cancer ribbon pins, and a silent auction was held with many exciting prizes.  It was a great day, and Community Caring Conference was honored to be a part of this celebration sponsored by Gilda's Club.
 

In partnership with Church of Peace, CCC will co-sponsor a Summer Activity Program for the youth of the neighborhood.  Children from ages 6—15 are encouraged to sign up for events that include field trips, swimming passes, games in the park, speakers, and a community day at Lincoln Park with children that will be attending park board sites.  Call Angela at 786-0345 for more information or to enroll your child.
