Do’s: Invite as many cancer survivors as you know and make
everyone feel welcome. Remember those you have lost and those who are battling
cancer with luminaria. Wear sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses as protection from the
sun. Teach about cancer prevention and early detection (provide
education info at your tent – we will be recognizing best mission/education campsite).
Have someone on the track at all times – we Relay in honor of those who have cancer. Since they have cancer 24 hours a day, we symbolically walk for the whole time we are at Relay For Life.
Be sure you have a Relay wristband on. Like our Facebook page to receive important updates through
