Special Activities at Relay for Life include:

The Survivors Luncheon & Lap
A special luncheon honoring cancer survivors will be held before the event and then Relay kicks off with a Survivors Lap where survivors are invited to circle the track together and help everyone celebrate the victories we’ve achieved over cancer. Survivors can register for the weekend events here.


The Luminaria Ceremony
After dark, we honor people who have been touched by cancer and remember loved ones lost to the disease during the Luminaria Ceremony. Candles are lit inside bags filled with sand, each one bearing the name of a person touched by cancer, and participants often walk a lap in silence. To purchase a luminaria in memory or honor of someone please follow this link.


Fighting Back Through Fundraising
Last, there is chance to Fight Back against cancer through fundraising. In addition to what the fundraising teams do before the Relay, there are endless fundraising opportunities available onsite. From food, face painters, crafts and more, Relay teams will have plenty of ways for participants and visitors to support the fight against cancer.


No matter where you are, there’s a place for you at Relay and you can make a difference today by signing up online to start your own team or by simply making a donation.


Thanks to Relay participants, we are creating a world with more birthdays a world where cancer can’t claim another year of anyone’s life.
