Relay For Life

This year, over 1.4 million Americans will hear the words "You have cancer".Every year I to join the American Cancer Society on their mission to save lives by participating in the Relay For Life in my community in honor of so many dear friends and family that have been touched by this horrible diease.

Relay For Life is a time to celebrate loved ones who have won their battle against cancer, pray for those who are still fighting and remember those who are no longer with us.  I am determined to make a difference so no more families will have to endure so much and I hope you will join me.
One of the most moving parts of Relay For Life is the Ceremony of Hope. As the sun goes down over campsites and team members complete laps, the night is brightened by the glow of lighted bags called luminaria, each of which has a special meaning.Some luminaries celebrate the survivorship of people who have battled cancer and lived to tell the tale and many commemorate the lives of those who have been lost to this disease.
 Together, we ARE saving lives and creating a world with more birthdays!
