“Pass the baton to teammates, enjoy the entertainment and join in all the exciting activities. Relay For Life is for everyone. You can participate at any age and any fitness level. Participants can join the event as individuals, or as part of a team. Teams can be a team of 1 or 100. Register as a Survivor Participant or as a Survivor Guest.”

“Each dollar raised, each lap completed, each baton passed, will bring us one step closer to creating a world where no one fears cancer,” organizers say.

“By participating in Relay For Life you are helping to fund Canada’s most promising cancer research to save more lives. You are helping us to stop cancer before it starts as we promote healthy lifestyles and advocate for policies that protect our health and support people who have cancer and their caregivers.
