Ten-year-old Presley McLain was selected from nominations all over the state as the 2016 California Division Statewide Recognizing Excellence Special Recognition Youth Engagement Recipient. “The mission of the American Cancer Society is fueled by its volunteer efforts. Your commitment and dedication have played a very important part in making a difference in ending the pain and suffering caused by this disease. Thank you.” stated Cynthia LeBlanc Dir. CA Division Awards Team in a letter sent to Miss McLain in May 2017. This year Presley has raised $7633.00. for Relay for Life of Fillmore-Piru by asking family and friends to donate to RFL in lieu of birthday gifts. Presley invites the public to attend the RFL this year scheduled for Sept. 23-24, 2017 at Shiells Park in Fillmore. The daughter of Lori and Bobby McLain, Presley aspires to continue raising money for a cure for cancer and someday would like to be the Events Chair for Relay for Life of Fillmore-Piru like her mother Lori. This year Presley is on the Luminaria committee.
