2018 Relay for Life Night

The evening is full of activities including commemorating the Survivors, remembering those who lost their battle to cancer, uplifting the caretakers, and uniting to continue to fight for more birthdays.  Everyone is welcome to come walk a lap or two in memory of loved ones and friends that are fighting cancer or lost their battle to cancer.  Activities get underway at 6:00PM.
