A kickoff meeting/celebration for the 2012 Relay For Life of Garrett County will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 18, at 6 p.m. in the Continuing Education building at Garrett County. Those interested in starting/joining a team, walking as an individual, participating in survivor activities, or joining the local RFL committee are invited to attend.
The 2012 Relay For Life of Garrett County is scheduled for June 8 and 9 at the Southern High School track. This year's theme is "Celebrate, Rememberhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif, and Fight Back!"
Relay For Life funds cancer awareness and detection programs, as well as patient services. Some of the programs and services that exist in the local community are Road to Recovery, which provides rides for patients to cancer treatments; Reach to Recover, which pairs newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with breast cancer survivors; Look Good Feel Better, which helps women manage appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment with classes on using makeup, wigs, and hats; and a patient navigator, who is housed at the Western Maryland Health System Schwab Family Cancer Center to help patients through their cancer "journey."
