The Wallaceburg Relay For Life event has eclipsed the $50,000 mark for fundraising.
While the May 31 event came up shy of the total directly after the event, a huge donation came in this past week from Scotia Bank in Wallaceburg.
Paul Bilodeau, chair of the committee, was handed a cheque for $3,000 to push them over the mark.
The 2014 number marks the biggest total in the four-year history of the event in Wallaceburg.
However, a fifth straight Relay For Life event in Wallaceburg will not be taking place.
Canadian Cancer Society officials in Chatham-Kent confirmed with the Sydenham Current in November that for a variety of reasons, the decision was made to combine the Wallaceburg and Chatham events in 2015.
