"One day. One night. One community. Your Relay For Life® is about celebration, remembrance, and hope. By participating, you honor cancer survivors, pay tribute to the lives we've lost to the disease, and raise money to help fight it all right here in your community. You won't want to miss one moment of this life- and community-affirming event!"
(Relay for life Camden website)
Well folks.....This year's Relay for Life was an enormous event that both young and old will appreciate forever. We had beautiful weather, sunshine, lots of people, contests, tons of food, tons of activities for kids including a bouncy house, duck ponds, face painting, making of rain sticks, a ceremony to donate hair for wigs for kids, and much much more including our main goal........to raise money for a cure for cancer. The Luminary ceremony was such a wonderful moving experience. If you were unable to attend you missed an amazing event that is truly something that can't be explained. We had a slideshow done by David Sisco and others with pictures of the past 3 years Relay's. The Camden Area raised over $60,000 towards the fight against cancer. The Faith Walkers team raised a large amount towards a cure to cancer! Well done. Thank you to everyone who helped plan and fundraiser, who participated in any fundraiser, joined a team, or came out on such a beautiful Saturday and Sunday to help us to Celebrate, Remember, & Fight Back!
Keep checking back all through the year for updates on Relay for Life and any new things about the quest for a cure!
