Relay For Life is a team event where participants walk around a track relay style overnight.
During the event, teams of people take turns walking laps. Each team tries to keep at least one team member on the track at all times.
Funds raised through Relay For Life go to various American Cancer Society programs.
Relay For Life helps a community celebrate the lives of those who have faced cancer, remember loved ones lost and fight back against the disease.
