Kickoff to Celebrate 30 Years of Relay For Life in Mission Viejo.

The epic 80’s themed Kickoff that will be hosted by The American Cancer Society’s, Relay For Life of Mission Viejo will be a great opportunity for the community to register for the 24-hour, overnight event at Saddleback College in June.

Anyone interested in getting involved can attend the kickoff on Thursday, Feb. 5, 2015 at 6:30 pm at The Norman P. Murray Community Center, 24932 Veterans Way, Mission Viejo, CA 92691.

Nationwide the American Cancer Society will celebrate, “Relay 30 Years Strong.” In fact, Dr. Gordon Klatt, founding father of Relay For Life, Tacoma Washington, walked and ran for 24 hours in May 1985 to raise more than $25,000 to help the fight cancer. Since then, Relay For Life has become a worldwide event raising more than $4 billion to fight cancer.

Don’t forget to break out your 80s apparel. The 80s offer a treasure trove of fads and fashion. Aerobics, Dynasty, Dallas, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Footloose and Flashdance dominated the era with bright neon colors, acid washed jeans, lacy finger-less gloves, legwarmers, headbands, crosses, shoulder pads, tons of costume necklaces and bracelets.

Enjoy entertainment, food, music and door prizes. The event is free. However, it is recommended to RSVP to Denise Matson at 949-470-3010 or email denise-matson17@gmail.com. Also, feel free to call Margot Ferron/Publicity/Marketing Chairperson at 949/309-1235 or gomargotgo@aol.com.
