Palatine’s SuperSibs! group hosts kickoff party for Sibtember campaign

The public is invited to attend the SuperSibs! organization’s Sibtember Kickoff Party and learn how wearing suspenders next month will help families battling pediatric cancer.

The event will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 22, at John Barleycorn, 1100 American Lane, Schaumburg.
