A great camping night for those who choose to stay over. At dusk a candlelight ceremony features candles lighted to remember those who have died from cancer and honor those who are fighting the disease. Several thousand candles are placed in white bags bearing the names of those remembered and honored. These bags are set out around the perimeter of the track and are truly an impressive sight during the night when lit. Cancer survivors walk the first lap around the Relay for Life track giving testimony to the increased survival rates.
