The 2010 Relay For Life of Garrett County will be held next Friday and Saturday, June 11-12, from 5 p.m. to 7 a.m. at the Southern High School track. Food from Jearbryo's and fries from the Oakland Rotary will be available.
Team fundraising events will start at 5 p.m. The opening ceremony will begin at 7 p.m., followed by the survivors lap. Participants can purchase a luminaria, which will be lit during a 9 p.m. ceremony, in memory of a loved one lost to cancer or to honor a cancer survivor.
Games, entertainment, and themed laps will take place throughout the evening. Prizes will include two adult year memberships at the Wisp fitness center, a Swedish massage at Sewickley Spa, and a number of gift certificates from area businesses.
Relay dollars fund many local programs such as Road to Recovery, which provides transportation for cancer patients to cancer treatments; Reach to Recovery, which provides one-on-one information for breast cancer patients from women who are survivors of breast cancer; I Can Cope, which offers training to those with cancer and/or their family members on how to cope with the disease; and Look Good Feel Better, which provides an opportunity for persons who are going through cancer treatment to receive a make-over from trained cosmetologists, along with a personal kit of makeup at the session.
