 “It's amazing to think that millions of people will be diagnosed with cancer this year. Someone close to you or me may be one of them,” Co-event, chairwoman Margot Ferron said. “Our Relay for Life is not only a way to join in the fight against cancer, but it's also a way to inspire hope and to create awareness to help those facing the disease."

 Relay for Life is a fun, overnight event that brings communities throughout the country to celebrate survivors, remember loved ones lost, commit to fight back through healthy lifestyle and raise money for the fight against cancer.
