At Relay, teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Relayers do not have to walk all night, but each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relay starts with a Su

rvivors Lap – an inspirational time when survivors... are invited to circle the track together and help everyone celebrate the victories we’ve achieved over cancer. We also recognize and celebrate caregivers at Relay For Life. These individuals give their time, love, and support to friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers who face cancer. 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. Last, there is a Fight Back Ceremony, where we make a personal commitment to save lives by taking up the fight against cancer.
