What is Relay For Life?
Walkers will go around the clock in the battle
against cancer when the American Cancer Society Relay For Life® of
Monroe/Trumbull gets underway with teams gathering at Masuk High School 1014
Monroe Turnpike in Monroe on Friday, June 8th at 6:00 p.m.
Relay For Life events are held overnight as teams camp
out at an athletic track, park or other gathering area, with the goal of
keeping at least one team member on the track or pathway at all times
throughout the event. Teams do most of their fundraising prior to the event, but
some teams also hold creative fundraisers at their campsites during Relay.
Relay brings together friends, families, businesses, hospitals, schools,
faith-based groups . . . people from all walks of life – all aimed at
furthering the American Cancer Society’s efforts to save lives by helping
people stay well, by helping them get well, by finding cures and by fighting
back.
