READY. SET. WALK.

The Canadian Cancer Society is hosting Relay Reunion events to gear up for Relay For Life 2015 in Woodstock and Ingersoll. If you have been to Relay before in any capacity or want to inquire about becoming a Relayer, we invite and encourage you to come. There are lots of exciting changes for this year’s event. The Reunion will be your chance to learn more, ask questions, reminisce of Relay’s past and, if you haven’t already, register for the special rate of $10.00.

For Woodstock, on Monday March 2, 2015, drop by for this FREE event at the Quality Hotel and Suites from 4 pm – 7 pm. Ingersoll’s Relay Reunion will be held on Wednesday March 4 at the UNIFOR Hall from 5 – 8 pm. There is lots of exciting things happening. Drop by information sessions, helpful booths, a survivor’s area, luminaries and kids area, so bring the whole family! There will be draws, door prizes and snacks. Plus, if you register to participate in Relay For Life, or have already registered, you will receive a long sleeve T-shirt.

Woodstock is celebrating 16 years of raising funds totalling over $3.37 million and Ingersoll is celebrating 13 years and raised over $1.29 million. These funds are needed for vital support services in our community and Canada’s most promising cancer research. Every fundraising dollar counts. For instance, a $50 donation means we can provide one ride for a cancer patient trying to get to treatment, a $300 donation means we can cover the cost of cancer cells needed for one research project and $100,000 raised means we can fund one more research grant. As a community we can work together and change lives.
