2010 Wakulla Relay for Life Kick Off Party to be Held Tuesday, Nov. 10
“You can never have too many candles: join the Wakulla Relay for Life committee on November 10th to learn about how to create a world with more birthdays!”
The Wakulla Relay for Life Committee announced that the Kick Off Party
for the 2010 Relay event will be held Tuesday, November 10th from 6 to
8 PM in the Community Room at Wakulla Bank. The Kick Off Party will
feature a carnival-themed mini-Relay event. Tacos, popcorn, and other
carnival-themed sweets will be served. The Kick Off Event is free and
open to all community members interested in learning more about Relay
for Life.
Returning teams that sign up to participate in the 2010 event will
become eligible for a special Thanksgiving-themed incentive. New teams
are also welcome to sign up during this event. The earlier you register
a team, the more time your team members will have to prepare for the
April 2010 event.
Don’t have a team or don’t have any idea what Relay for Life is all
about? There are still ways for you to be involved in this
community-wide event to fight cancer and remember survivors.
Relay for Life is a fun-filled overnight event designed to celebrate
survivorship and raise money for research and programs of the American
Cancer Society. During the Wakulla event, teams of people gather at the
Wakulla High School track and take turns walking or running laps. Each
team tries to keep at least one team member on the track at all times.
The event features a survivor lap, entertainment, games, refreshments
available for purchase, and a luminaria lighting ceremony. The event
is free and open to the public. Community members are encouraged to
organize friends and family into teams to participate.
Teams may register online or in person. Online Chair Nancy Commander
can assist prospective teams with registration. If you have any
questions about registering your team online you can contact Nancy at
570-5463 or
