Fight cancer at Schweitzer today

SANDPOINT - Community Cancer Services of Sandpoint and Schweitzer Mountain Resort will team up today to offer $10 lift tickets all day and raise funds for those with cancer in the community.

A Day for Community Cancer Services was formerly known as "A Day for Heather."

Schweitzer Mountain Resort plans to have all 2900 acres of skiable terrain open and operate 8 lifts - including everything but the Sunnyside Double.

Lifts will run from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

One hundred percent of the proceeds will be donated.

Community Cancer Services is a local resource and information center for cancer patients and their families.
