There's something planned for every age group. Team members will take turns walking the track, a pilgrimage in honor of cancer survivors in the community, whose numbers increase each year. The money raised goes to expand cancer control and advocacy and to fund and increase awareness of improved methods for detection and treatment. At relay time, team members will take turns walking the track. Participants will pitch tents in the track infield.
Tradition calls for colorful campsite decoration.
They say they have met life-long friends and strengthened ties with old friends and family. This is an opportunity to learn that cancer is a survivable disease. Cheer these survivors on to live long and happy lives, cancer-free. For further information, Harberts can be reached at Oak Hill Hospital, 597-6363, ext. The 2001 Relay for Life festivities will include a Health Fair on Saturday, April 21 at Springstead High School Track field.
