Get involved in the fight against cancer in Wayne County
Residents of Wayne County are getting ready to join communities across
the nation in the American Cancer Societyıs Relay For Life, the nationıs
largest fund raiser.
Relay For Life is a non-competitive, overnight event. Teams are
recruited from businesses, clubs, families, friends, hospitals, churches,
schools and service organizations. Each group chooses a team theme, and
members take turns walking or running around a track during the night. Games
and activities held during the event make it a festive occasion.
³We invite everyone in the community to take part in the Relay For
Life,² said Kristy Brummett, team recruitment chair. ³Where else can you
show your enthusiasm for such an important cause by creating outrageous team
themes, decorating campsites, and playing games all night long?²
Money raised from the event supports American Cancer Society research,
education, advocacy and patient services programs.
To register a team or find out more about Relay For Life, call the
American Cancer Society at 1-800-ACS-2345 or visit www.cancer.org.
The American Cancer Society is the nationwide, community-based,
voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major
health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives and diminishing suffering
from cancer, through research, education, advocacy and service.
