Help the Canadian Cancer Society celebrate, remember and fight back on June 11 at The Relay For Life which is their biggest cancer fundraising event and a unique opportunity for people of all ages to come together and join the fight against cancer. Relay For Life is a 12-hour, overnight, non-competitive event that involves teams of people taking turns walking or running around a track. The event opens with the Survivors' Victory Lap, where cancer survivors kick-off the event by walking an inspirational first lap. During the moving Luminary Ceremony at dusk, luminaries are lit to pay tribute to loved ones and provide inspiration to participants.  To get more information, volunteer or to register for this meaning cause please contact Emily Hui at (780) 742-2446 or visit cancer.ca/relay.
