LAKEPORT – The American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life is a 24-hour overnight community celebration where groups of friends, families, neighbors and coworkers form teams to walk or run around a track, to celebrate the lives of those who have faced cancer, remember loved ones lost and fight back against the disease.


The event and Survivors Lap will be held on Saturday, May 16, and Sunday, May 17, at Clear Lake High School on Lange Street in Lakeport starting at 10 a.m.


Each cancer survivor will receive a free T-shirt to wear while walking the track. There is no cost to participate. Families are encouraged to attend.


Cancer survivors (anyone who has ever been diagnosed with cancer) from the Lake County area are invited to walk the first lap of the American Cancer Society Relay For Life to celebrate their victory over cancer.


The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Luminaria Ceremony remembers those lost to cancer and honors cancer survivors in Lake County, Saturday evening at sunset.


Funds raised will support the American Cancer Society’s research, education, advocacy and patient and family services.


Individuals or companies can make contributions and light a luminaria at the event. Each dedicated luminaria will be displayed at the Relay For Life event held at Clear Lake High School.


Luminaria contributions can be made by calling the American Cancer Society, 800-ACS-2345 or on our Web site www.relayforlife.org\lakecountyca.


Everyone from the community is invited to attend any portion of the event. It’s not too late to sign up a team either by registering on-line at www.relayforlife.org\lakecounty.ca or calling Event Chair Stephanie Ashworth at 707-367-3023.


The American Cancer Society is dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by saving lives, diminishing suffering and preventing cancer through research, education, advocacy and service.


Founded in 1913 and with national headquarters in Atlanta, the Society has 13 regional Divisions and local offices in 3,400 communities, involving millions of volunteers across the United States.
