Landrum High School’s volleyball, football and JROTC teams have united to raise money for the Susan G. Kolmen Foundation. The groups are selling pink ribbons to hang in the school’s hallways and pink balloons to be released during the Oct. 26 football game. Those who purchase balloons can even request a name to be written on each item. The Cardinals’ volleyball team has “Volley for the Cure” T-shirts for sale as well. The team will have a table set up at their play-off match on Monday. The players are also collecting change to fill bottles.
