Relay For Life is an 18-hour event involving teams of up to 15 people keeping a baton moving in a relay style walk or run overnight, to raise vital funds for all Queenslanders affected by cancer.
“The American Cancer Society’s 13-year partnership with Delta Air Lines has contributed significantly to our efforts to save more lives from cancer”, said Shari Henning, Executive Vice President of American Cancer Society’s South Atlantic Division. Once the candles are placed around the track, the short ceremony takes place. “All candles are numbered, and people can easily locate their own candle and message around the track”.
