American Cancer Society s Relay for Life seeks teams for Powhatan Field event Participants and teams from the campus community are being sought to take part in the American Cancer Society s Relay for Life, the society s largest fund-raising and community awareness event. The relay at Old Dominion will begin with an opening ceremony at 7 p.m. April 14 at Powhatan Field, followed by a luminary ceremony at 9 p.m. An overnight community celebration, the event will feature teams of 10 to 15 members that raise donations before and during the relay.
Teams pledge to have one member on the track at all times, walking or running.
Each team is offered a campsite and encouraged to stay overnight, enjoying a festival-style atmosphere with music, food, games, entertainment, competition and camaraderie. Prizes will be awarded based on the amount of money raised. Old Dominion is reportedly the only university in Virginia to have its own relay. The annual event is open to faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends of Old Dominion. For more information or to register call the recreational sports office at 683-3384.
