Colors of Cancer Bemidji Over Weekend

The Colors of Cancer is a Bemidji-based non-profit that raises money and awareness for community members going through treatment for cancer and for the past 12 years they have put on the Little Black Dress Gala as one of their premium fundraising events. The event has raised over $40,000 per year over the 12 year lifespan of the event for a great cause and has routinely gathered over 300 area women together for a night of games, dinner, raffles, and sharing stories.

This year’s event took place at the SouthShore Hotel on Lake Bemidji on Saturday, and organization treasurer Trudy Peterson spoke about the event.
