The American Cancer Society Relay for Lift of Langlade County will kick off planning for the 2015 event on March 3, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Langlade Hospital.
Cancer survivors, volunteers, community members will gather to kick off the event, slated for June 5 and 6th at the Antigo High School's Listle Field.
The program will highlight ways the Society fights back against cancer and will honor cancer survivors and caregivers. This is an opportunity for people to learn how to get involved and register teams.
Relay for Life movement unites communities across the globe to celebrate people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and take action to finish the fight once and for all. Relay for Life events are community-based events where teams and individuals camp out at a school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team has at least one participant on the track at all times and participates in fundraising in the months leading up to the event. Funds raised through Relay for Life events support the American Cancer Society's lifesaving mission.
