Committee Spotlight ✨ Danielle - Team Development

We couldn't find any photos of Danielle where she wasn't running around like a chicken with her head cut off or doing something ridiculous... and that pretty much sums her up!

Danielle has been Relaying since high school and LOVES that we are going back to overnight - look forward to her annoyingly waking people up throughout the night with singing, dancing, and general shenanigans 😝

We are on the lookout for musicians and performers for FNQ Relay 💜

With FNQ Relay For Life returning to an overnight event, we have even MORE entertainment spots to fill! Because Relay is a family event and caters to the whole community, we are looking for a variety of different types of performers - solos, duos, whole bands, dancers, etc. - but also of any background, type of music, or age.

You started a band at your school and only done a couple gigs? You are the most well-known artist in Cairns but are just incredibly passionate about volunteering your time for a great community event? You still perform with your best mates after 20 years on the scene together?

We'd love to hear from all of those and everything in between 😎

Shoot us a DM or an email at: [email protected]

Committee Spotlight ✨ Peter - Logistics Coordinator

Five years ago, Peter met a lady... and luckily for us that lady was Christina 👰🤵 Peter was immediately absorbed onto the Relay Committee and given all sorts of tasks before officially becoming our Logistics Coordinator!

Peter also volunteers his time by capturing the event through photos (& stalker-ish drone footage 😝) so that everyone has precious memories from each event.

Peter's "why do you Relay?" is in honour of his mum. Cancer affects so many families, and Relay helps Peter remember that there is HOPE and that we are all fighting together.

👇 tell us who and what you Relay for in the comments 🫶

Interested in events, fundraising, or live music? We are searching for committee members to join our team.

Our committee plans & runs Relay For Life each year and we are hoping to grow our committee as we return to an overnight event!

We are particularly looking to recruit people interested in fundraising and coordinating volunteers & to organise our entertainment during the event.

We also need volunteers interested in assisting on the day - with selling merch, registration, set up, pack down & cleaning.

Shoot us a DM if you'd like more information!
