Relay for Life of Scott County

Come on out to Vaughan Field for our 17th annual Relay for Life of Scott County.  The American Cancer Society Relay for Life is a life-changing event that gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to Celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, Remember loved ones lost, and Fight Back against the disease by walking around the track all night among Lit Luminarias.  The Relay for Life of Scott County is one of the top Relays in Minnesota bringing together all communities in Scott County.  All money raised goes directly to the American Cancer Society to help fund cancer research and programs.

This year's theme is Colors of Hope which helps bring awareness to all types of cancer.  A fun filled night is planned including children's games, teenage-adult games (new this year!), a silent auction, hot-air balloon rides (weather permitting), concessions, Qdoba & Kona Ice food trucks, and a DJ playing throughout the night.  More information can be found at http://bit.ly/U1Upu8.  A full list of the nights events can be found at http://bit.ly/U4qO3i
