We’re two weeks out from our Relay for Life Event! It’s been fun (and crazy) getting it planned, but it will all come together. I’m on the committee this year, so seeing how it all works from the inside has been interesting and it’s always neat to help plan something so awesome!
My Relay for Life team this year, Circle of Hope, has raised about $1600 so far. We’ve done a couple bake sales, a bowling tournament, an Origami Owl party, and some other fundraisers. Something we decided to try this year is a pretty baby contest that we’re calling Pretty Little Relayer!
Who doesn’t love a pretty baby contest?!? We’re hoping to get a good turn out, see bunches of cute kiddos, and raise money for the American Cancer Society.
I’ve raised a little over $200 right now, but my goal is $300. If you’d like to donate, please visit my Relay for Life Donation page.
For the Relay for Life big event, I’m currently working on a slideshow that will play during the Luminaria ceremony. People have been sending me pictures to put in the slideshow that will be in honor of or in memory of a loved one. This is something new to our local Relay for Life event and everyone is loving the idea! When it’s complete, I’ll share it here so everyone can see.
