Relay for Life Seeking Sponsors in Lake Forest

Lake Forest, CA--The American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life Lake Forest, a 24-hour overnight event that will be held at the Lake Forest Sports Park, is seeking sponsors from local businesses..

The event will be held at 28000 Rancho Parkway, Lake Forest, CA 92610 on Saturday, July 30, 2016 at 10 a.m. to Sunday, July 31 at 10 a.m.

This is Relay For Life Lake Forest’s 11th relay. Their theme is “Red, White, Blue and Half A $Million, Too!” The event is on its way to raising $500,000

Sponsorship opportunities are available at different levels and it allows Relay to bring a wide array of participants together to fight against cancer. It’s a unique way to inspire hope and to create awareness to help those facing the disease.

Vendors are a huge part of our successful event. To hold a space at Relay, vendors need to make a $25 deposit. We ask that those selling products or services donate 20% of their profits. You will need to bring your own easy–up, table, chairs and supplies. The vendor fee is tax deductible as a charitable donation to the American Cancer Society.

How can you get involved? You can be a Sponsor, Business Card Sponsor or donate for the Silent Auction on the day of relay.

If you are a small business, a dentist, hairdresser, this is an inexpensive way to advertise your business. For $100 you can get a half-page ad in the program that looks just like your business card.

The deadline for the Business Card to get in the program is July 21.

Teams walk on the track at the Lake Forest Sports Park. They are committed to creating awareness and raising money in the fight against cancer. Join in the party atmosphere! Teams pitch tents, camp-out, eat, feast, share in games and entertainment.

Because Relay is a team event, individuals aren’t required to be there the entire time. However, it’s so much fun you will get caught up in the party atmosphere and want to stay. The day is packed with entertainment- bands, Kids zone, onsite fundraisers, fight back messages, and more.

You don’t need to be a runner or even a walker to participate. The common thread is to have team members’ continuously walking, running or strolling around the track for 24-hours to celebrate those who have survived cancer, remember those we have lost to the disease and to empower everyone to fight back against cancer.
Relay is a healing experience for those fighting cancer. It offers them a chance to meet others who have claimed victory over cancer. This is a great, free family event for the community, but it wouldn’t be possible without the many generous sponsors and volunteers.
