at 7 pm.

Admission is free. Enjoy free food, music, fun gifts and help join the fight.

Register a team at the kick off bash or join a team, sponsors are also needed. Get involved. Meet Stayc Sharrow, now in her 13th year with Relay For Life. Stayc fought Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in 1996. After 12 cycles of chemotherapy and three months of radiation she won the battle. Almost exactly one year after her diagnosis, Stayc became involved with the Relay for Life event in Miami and has never looked back. Now she fights back by helping others and their families who have been touched by cancer.

Relay for Life is an overnight community event where individuals and teams camp out, barbecue and take turns walking and running around a track, "relay" style to raise funds to fight cancer. At nightfall, participants will light hundreds of luminary candles around the track in a moving ceremony to honor cancer survivors as well as remembering those lost to the disease. The actual Relay for Life is April 2 and 3 this year, in Peacock Park.
