Relay for Life Survivors Lap 2013
Cancer survivors walk a lap around the track during last year’s Relay for Life event at Mountain Brook High School.
Relay for Life will be held at Mountain Brook High School on May 1 at 4 p.m.
The event has ranked as the No. 1 youth Relay for Life event per capita and No. 2 overall event among all those raising funds for the American Cancer Society.
During the relay, each team will have at least one member walking around the track at all times. This year, for every lap a participant does, they will receive a lap bead as a keepsake. Participants can walk the track in memory of someone lost to cancer or in honor of someone currently battling cancer or who has survived cancer. There will also be a survivor’s dinner and a luminaria ceremony.
Teams can sign up for their campsite and bring in their offsite money on April 28. They can register at http://relay.acsevents.org/site/TR?pg=entry&fr_id=63771.
