(ACS) Relay for Life Event

Robert Bauer - Monday, June 01, 2009


Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s signature activity. It offers everyone in a community an opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer. Teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relays are an overnight event, up to 24 hours in length. 

This year, Jill Mostek from State Farm in Chesterfield Township sponsored an artist from Goofy Faces to draw caricatures of the participants as they ran their laps to help raise money and awareness for the cause. The event was dampened by rain but not the attendees spirits.  Even PAWS from the Detroit Tigers had fun getting his caricature drawn.
