A volleyball serving game will also take place.

Featured items to be given away during this game include an I-Touch, a pink I-Pod and CASH prizes.

The Ironladies are participating in Volley for the Cure to support the Susan G. Komen Foundation and to make a difference in the fight against breast cancer.

This is the second straight year for the Volley for the Cure event at Jackson High School.

The event is a follow-up from the Jackson County Relay for Life, in which the Ironladies participated in and raised over $2,800.

For more than 25 years, Komen for the Cure has played a critical role in every major advance in the fight against breast cancer, including transforming how the world talks about and treats this disease and helping to turn millions of breast-cancer patients into breast-cancer survivors.

Please join the Ironladies volleyball program in the fight for a cure by attending our Volley for the Cure event.
