This event is a family, community event meant to bring people together for one goal, make a difference in the fight against cancer. The American Cancer Society and especially the local Relay for Life Committee believes we can make a difference. Every basis point improvement in the survival rate represents a person that is someone's father, mother, wife, husband, sister, brother, etc.
Cancer knows no socio-economic boundaries and plays no favorites.
We have all been touched by this insidious disease and are committed to eradicating this menace one life at a time. Appropriately we will start the event with a celebration of life as those who have survived will lead the first lap.
