What is a Relay For Life event?
An American Cancer Society Relay For Life event is an overnight
community gathering where teams camp out at a local school,
park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a
track or path. Because cancer never sleeps, each team is asked
to have a representative on the track at all times during the
overnight event, and all team members are asked to raise a
minimum of $100 each. It's camping with a cause for 24 fun-filled hours in which we reflect and fundraise in hopes that cancer will be cured.
Celebrate cancer survivors and caregivers.

The Relay celebration can truly be symbolized by the courage
and spirit of the survivors and caregivers in your community. The
Survivors Lap, which opens every Relay For Life event, ensures
that survivors and caregivers experience healing and celebration
and are charged to take action in the fight against cancer. If
you know any survivors or caregivers, please invite them to
participate. Contact your survivor and caregiver chair for formal
invitations to the celebration.
