There’s still time to sign up for Relay for Life.  The American Cancer Society is holding relays in Comstock Park, East Grand Rapids, Forest Hills, and Rockford on May 18th and 19th. 

The Comstock Park Relay begins at 3pm at the Comstock Park High School.

The East Grand Rapids Relay starts at 3pm at the East Grand Rapids High School.

The Forest Hills Relay begins at an hour earlier at 2pm at the Cascade Library.

The Rockford Relay begins at 3pm at the North Rockford Middle School.

Although every Relay For Life is different, there are certain traditions shared by all Relays, no matter where they are held. These traditions help people celebrate, remember, and fight back.

Celebrate - The Survivors Lap
The Survivors Lap is an inspirational time when survivors are invited to circle the track together and help everyone celebrate the victories we’ve achieved over cancer.
