Relay For Life of Crawford County is having its 2013-2014 open house on Thursday, Nov. 21 from 6 – 8 p.m. in the basement of St. John’s UCC (120 S Lane St) in Bucyrus.
Attendees will receive information about this year’s Relay For Life and mingle with other team captains and participants from years past.
The evening will include refreshments, raffles, fundraisers, information on forming a Relay team and/or joining a Relay team, access to laptops for easy registration, information on the programs/services, committee and sponsorship opportunities, music and door prizes.
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is still looking for committee members to be a part of the 2014 Relay for Life of Crawford County. Volunteers are needed to organize and recruit teams, seek community support and underwriting, coordinate the survivor dinner, coordinate logistics, find refreshments and prizes, plan entertainment and much more.
Relay For Life is held overnight as individuals and teams camp out at an athletic track, with the goal of keeping at least one team member on the track at all times throughout the evening. Teams do most of their fundraising prior to the event, but some teams also hold creative fundraisers at their camp sites during Relay.
Relay brings together friends, families, businesses, hospitals, schools, faith-based groups–people from all walks of life–all aimed at celebrating the lives of those who have had cancer, remembering those lost, and fighting back against the disease.
Anyone that is interested in seeing how he or she can be part of this wonderful event is more than welcome to come to the open house.
