Central York is scoring to defeat childhood cancer this September!

In support of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the Central York Panthers football team is proud to join Touchdowns Against Cancer! We are inviting our fans to pledge a donation for every touchdown we score from September 15 to October 1. Every touchdown scored by the Panthers during this campaign will directly benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and help defeat childhood cancer.

Touchdowns Against Cancer hits close to home to our program at Central York. Tucker Haas is a current sophomore at Central York High School who successfully defeated childhood cancer and rallied the football team along the way. “Tuckers Team” will remain evident in the Central York Football program for many years to come. This August, one of our own youth football players was diagnosed with brain cancer. We will not only dedicate our Touchdowns Against Cancer Campaign to Ayden, but our entire season is for this young man. Stay strong Ayden, we will fight this together. #ONEFAMILY #ONEHEARTBEAT #TUCKERSTEAM #AYDENSTRONG

SAVE A LIFE BAKERY is teaming up with Central York Football to fight childhood cancer. Julia Warner (8th Grader @ Central York Middle School) has created a charity with the hopes of giving hospitalized children battling with cancer an activity that would make them happy. She came up with the idea of having cookies and cupcakes they could decorate to keep their minds off of their illness. Although her initial idea never came to fruition due to concerns of the possibility of transferring infections through the patients, she redirected her vision and has hosted fundraising events to donate proceeds to help with research. Her next event will be September 24th. Julia and Save a Life Bakery will be at Springettsbury Township Park from 12:00pm until 6:00pm for Saturday in the Park on September 24th! Come out and support Julia in her efforts to help FIGHT CHILDHOOD CANCER!!!
