for more information and printable forms to join the fight against cancer.


The American Cancer Society RELAY FOR LIFE represents our hope that those lost to cancer will not be forgotten, that those who are battling cancer will be supported and that one day cancer will be eliminated.

What is Relay?
A 24-hour team event raising money for cancer research, education programs, and services for cancer patients and their families.  Relay for Life combines the best elements of a family camp-out, a block party, and a walk-a-thon.  Teams consisting of  8-15 people set up a campsite and take turns walking the track relay-style to raise money and demonstrate their commitment to the fight against cancer.

Fun All Night!
Form a team and make a difference!  Because the Relay is an overnight event, each team has a campsite - a place to catch a few winks and hang out with team members.  Bring tents, sleeping bags, food and smiles!  All Relay for Life events are alcohol and tobacco-free. 

Luminaria Ceremony
After dark, an inspiration Luminaria Ceremony of Hope takes place.  Candles placed in luminaria bags line the track - in memory of those who lost the fight, and in honor of survivors.  Throughout the night, these luminaria remind us why we continue the fight.  For more information regarding purchase of luminaria contact

Cancer Survivors
We are winning the battle...and cancer survivors show us that!.  Each Relay has a Cancer Survivors Lap.  This Victory Lap sets the tone for the Relay and honors our survivors.
