Enno, 2009 RFL Co-Chair.




June Lammers got involved on a Relay Team in 2001.  In 2002, she joined the committee as Luminaria Ceremony Co-Chair.  Since then, she has served in many committee positions to include Event Director and Co-Chair.  In 2011, many committee members (and a few margaritas) convinced June she would be great for sponsorship.  Now, June holds the Sponsorship Chair title for the 2012 Springfield/Greene County Relay for Life.  In June’s spare time, she is the Team Captain for Team Hospitality and Hope.  She also serves as the Chair for the Relay for Life Chairman’s Circle, a group of community leaders formed to stimulate growth, recognition, and participation in Relay.  June Relays because so many people in her family have been victims of cancer.  She hopes to be a part of the elimination of this disease all together.
