A celebration, remembrance, and rally
Relay For Life is the signature fundraising and cancer awareness event for the American Cancer Society. Funds raised support their programs in research, education, advocacy, and patient services. It is an annual community-building event that brings people together to fight cancer—raising donations to support the American Cancer Society’s efforts; celebrating those who are fighting and have beaten cancer; and honoring those lost.
Celebrating cancer survivors
Cancer survivors from our community receive a free t-shirt with registration. Join the survivors lap to be cheered on.
Celebrating caregivers
Friends, family members, and healthcare workers who have cared for a cancer patient follow the survivors lap with the caregivers lap.
Luminaria ceremony
As the sundown we light the pre-made luminaria bags in honor of or in memory of loved ones.
Team activities
Relay teams host welcoming spaces with activities, items for sale, food, and any other surprises they’ve worked up throughout the year.
