What is Relay For Life?
Relay For Life is a community based non-competitive walking event that brings together more than 3.5 million people to CELEBRATE the lives of those who have battled cancer, REMEMBER those we have lost, and empower individuals and communities to FIGHT BACK against this terrible disease. Over 5000 events occur throughout the country each year. Teams camp out and take turns walking the track, demonstrating their commitment to creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays!
Teams of 10 to 15 people raise money prior to the event by conducting a variety of fundraising activities. Teams also have the opportunity to have a fundraising element at their campsite during the event. Great food is available, entertainment, fun games and activities for the whole family! Admission is free and all are welcome!
