The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is the world’s largest and most impactful fundraising event to end cancer. It unites communities across the globe to celebrate people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and take action to finish the fight once and for all. Today, with the support of thousands of volunteers like you, the American Cancer Society is helping save more than 400 lives a day. And we won’t stop until we finish the fight against cancer! Please join us!
Survivors can register on-line prior to the Relay by going to RelayForLifeofGraysHarbor.org, click on “join” and fill out the form. Or they can call 1-800-227-2345 and do it over the phone. This allows them to not stand in line at Relay to register and get their free t-shirt and 2015 survivor medal — they can just go right to the t-shirt line, tell us they are registered, and get them without waiting. We will have special reserved seating at the Start/Finish line for our Survivors, as well as snacks in the Survivor tent prior to the start of Relay.
