Alex Scott is gone, a victim of childhood cancer. But her lemonade stands live on, raising funds to fight that vicious adversary, and a group of dedicated local women called Driving for a Cure held an event in Suffield on May 18 to support the cause. This year Driving for a Cure sponsored a Texas-style hoedown called Stomp Out Cancer. Like the first Stomp last year, a good crowd gathered at the Hatheway House Barn. Among those attending were Alex’s mother, Liz Smith, from Enfield, and Alex’s aunt, Sue Flynn of Suffield.
