Relay For Life is a life-changing event that gives everyone in our community a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost and fight back against the disease. Relay also provides an opportunity to inform our community about the many services and programs available to local cancer patients and caregivers.
Relay starts with a Survivors Lap – an inspirational time when survivors are invited to circle the track together and help everyone celebrate the victories we’ve achieved over cancer. The day continues with live entertainment, games, food and activity booths and Kid's Camp. After dark, we honor people who have been touched by cancer and remember loved ones lost to the disease during the Luminaria Ceremony. Relay has a way of turning tough stories about cancer into stories of joy, encouragement, hope and compassion.
These emotions and the support a person receives at Relay For Life are beyond description. Your doctor can't prescribe it; it doesn't come in pill form and it doesn't come in a bottle. But it's available on the field of any Relay. It’s genuine, from the heart, FREE and priceless all at the same time.
Each person who shares the Relay experience can take pride in knowing they are working to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. Learn more about the Relay at RelayForLife.org or call 1-800-227-2345.
This event is held at Cabrillo College Track, Aptos
