[Topeka, K.S.] - The Topeka Tarantulas of the Central Hockey League (CHL) are going to the Farmer's Market to give back to the community.

The Topeka Tarantulas will be on hand from 8 a.m. to Noon to accept donations for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk. In addition, Troy Mann will be signing autographs from 10 a.m. until Noon at the Tarantulas table.
The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide evening walk to raise awareness and funds to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. The Topeka Tarantulas are participating in the walk in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers.
