Monster Machines in Kane
On Sunday, May 24, from 1-5 p.m. on Highland Road behind Kane High School, kids of all ages will have the opportunity to enjoy a quarter mile of Big machines up close and personal.
Among the featured machines are skid steers, backhoes, log trucks, bulldozers, dump trucks and fire trucks. The “Jaws of Life” are expected to be demonstrated as well as demonstrations of backhoes and log trucks.
In addition to the big machine show and demonstrations, there will be an abundance of food, games, prizes, and raffles. The “Friday Niters” will provide music from 1-3 p.m.
At least eleven Kane Area Relay for Life teams will be providing special activities and food to entertain and amaze while raising funds for a cancer cure and for local patient services for those who hear the words “You have cancer.” Forty percent of the money raised goes toward cancer research and the other 60% for patient care, assistance or services.
The community is invited to attend this special event. There is a $1 admission charge per person, with children 2 and under admitted free.
Those attending are asked to park at the Kane Area High School parking lot. Highland Road will be blocked to traffic and must be kept clear so that fire trucks and other rescue vehicles participating may exit swiftly if needed in an emergency.
Big Machines owned by Steve Chittester Excavating, Steve Dyne Excavating, Mealy Excavating, Rich Peterson, the Kane Volunteer Fire Department, Norm Asel Enterprises, and Jerry Milliron Contracting and Landscaping are among those to be seen, heard and demonstrated.
Julia Carlson Anderson and her father, waterman Dave Carlson have created this highly anticipated event. Come, bring the whole family and support a great cause.

The many teams of the Kane Area Relay for Life work all year long to “Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back!” by raising money through a year of fundraisers, dinners, bake sales, yard sales, product sales, collection canisters, dime bottles, bottle recycling,
Candy sales, raffles, auctions. Several teams raise large amounts from families and friends across the county online.
In 2008, the Kane Area Relay raised over $62,000 dollars. The 2009 collection of teams hopes to top that mark.
The 9th Annual Kane Area Relay for Life will culminate in a 24-hour event on July 10 and 11 from noon to noon at the Kane Area High School Track. Each team will have tent set up with food and entertainment for participants. That 24 hours is filled with events to honor survivors, remember those living with and lost to cancer through a moving luminary ceremony, and so much more. There will be special events and entertainment throughout the day and night while team members walk the track.
The public is highly encouraged to participate in the celebration and opening event Friday, July 10 and the parade to rally the community to the event on Thursday evening, July 9 at 6 p.m. in uptown Kane.
