Be a part of something world changing!

Join us tonight at Scott Highlands Middle School at 7:00 pm to learn more about the 2015 Relay For Life of Apple Valley. Relay is a volunteer led, community driven event that funds the amazing work of the American Cancer Society. We encourage anyone who is interested to get more information at www.RelayForLife.org/AppleValleyMN.

The American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life movement is the world’s largest fundraising event geared toward ending cancer and uniting communities across the globe to fight back against this disease. In Apple Valley teams camp out at Quarry Point Athletic Complex and take turns walking or running around the track while entertainment, music and activities keep things lively. Symbolizing the battle waged around the clock by those fighting cancer, the event lasts for 12 hours, beginning with a powerful Celebration ceremony, lasting through the darkness of night as we Remember loved ones lost, and finishing with the dawn of a new day and an inspiring Fight Back rally.
