Cancer Society to create Piscataquis County unit

DOVER-FOXCROFT — The Maine Division of American Cancer Society will hold an orientation meeting to form a Piscataquis County Unit board of directors at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 25, at SeDoMoCha Middle School in Dover-Foxcroft.

Chris Olsen, senior executive director for northern Maine, said he had more than 12 people express an interest in serving on such a board and he hoped they would become involved with the programs of the American Cancer Society.

The society is the only nationwide community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives from cancer and diminishing suffering from cancer through research, education, service and advocacy.

Those interested should plan to attend the meeting or call the Bangor office at 990-2345.
