relay Relay for Life is a team fundraising effort sponsored by the American Cancer Society. The actual Relay is a fun-filled overnight event designed to celebrate survivorship and raise money for research and programs for your American Cancer Society. During the event, teams of people gather at schools, fairgrounds, or parks and take turns walking or running laps. Each team tries to keep at least one team member on the track at all times. Winterville UMC has put together a "team" to help fight cancer and participate in this year's Relay for Life in Clarke County on May 16, 2008 at Cedar Shoals High School. We will have several fundraising events that we are planning over the course of the next few months leading up to Relay and certainly hope that you will come out to support our team. And better yet, become part of our team! You don't have to run or walk laps to be a part of our team, everyone can participate regardless of your age or physical capabilities. In addition to these fundraising activities, we will also be taking donations for luminaries, torches, and pictures to be shown the night of Relay - forms will be available at our various activities. Cancer has affected the lives of so many of us, I am sure each and everyone of you knows someone that has had or has cancer. Just in the past 5 years we have lost several of our church family to this disease. We need to work together - come out and support this effort to fight this killer and celebrate life. In Christ's love and mine, Shari Irwin Upcoming Events... May 16 - Relay for Life @ Cedar Shoals High School |
