What Makes a Relay Event Special?  the people...

"I relay so cures for cancer can be found. I relay so we can knock cancer out!" - Victoria Dickinson, committee member.

"I relay to raise funds for research. I was part of a research project that saved my life and changed the survival rates with my type of cancer from 20% to 80%!" - Kelly Miller, committee member, cancer survivor. 

the moments...

   

 Survivors Lap

      During the Survivors Lap, all cancer survivors at the event take the first lap around the track, celebrating their victory over cancer while cheered on by the other participants who line the track. Relay For Life events also recognize and celebrate caregivers, who give time, love, and support to their friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers facing cancer.

     Luminaria Ceremony

     The Luminaria Ceremony takes place after dark, so we can remember people we have lost to cancer, honor people who have fought cancer in the past, and support those whose fight continues. Candles are lit inside of personalized bags and are placed around the Relay track as glowing tributes to those who’ve been affected by cancer.

   

 Fight Back Ceremony

     This emotionally powerful ceremony inspires Relay participants to take action. The Fight Back Ceremony symbolizes the emotional commitment each of us can make in the fight against cancer. The action taken represents what we are willing to do for ourselves, for our loved ones, and for our community to fight cancer year-round and to commit to saving lives.
