Commack Relay for Life Kick Off Celebration Set for Thursday, January 14th

Commack Relay for Life 2016 is proud to announce that the official Kick Off Celebration will be held on Thursday, January 14th at 7:00 PM in the Commack High School Art Gallery. Please join us as our community comes together to jump start another Relay for Life season here in Commack! Whether you have relayed before or you are thinking about getting involved for the first time - everyone is welcome to attend.

The Kick Off Celebration is a great opportunity to find out more about what Relay for Life is all about, form/register a team, register a survivor or caregiver, or learn about volunteer opportunities.

Relay for Life is a community-driven overnight event that CELEBRATES cancer survivors, REMEMBERS those we have lost and FIGHTS BACK against cancer by raising money and awareness to help eliminate cancer as a major health problem. Last year over 90 enthusiastic teams participated in Commack’s Relay for Life and together they raised over $208,000 making our community one of the top events in Metro NY. In addition, Commack Relay was so honored to have had more than 100 survivors and caregivers attend the dinner and lead the opening Relay Lap. It is our goal to double that number this year. Commack Relay for Life 2016 will be held overnight May 26-27th at Commack High School.

We look forward to seeing everyone at this inspirational event!
