RELAY FOR LIFE
Relay for Life is an overnight fundraising event dedicated towards honoring cancer survivors and remembering those lost to the disease. During these 24 hours, students from various schools will work together to bring awareness to and fight back against cancer. With an abundance of games and many activities, you can have fun, all while doing good for your community and earning funds for cancer research. If you are interested in contributing to your community and to the cancer cause, an informational meeting will be held in January - more details are to come.
