I participated in the American Cancer Society Relay for Life in Tooele County this year.My sister was a team captain and let my crazy self on her team. I had an awesome time. I'm excited to do it again next year.
You're supposed to get donations, then walk/run around the track all night (and resting some). I only made it until 2 p.m. (I still had to drive an hour home). Needless to say, I was tired last weekend!

They had the survivors lap which Summer got to participate in.
Then they had the Luminaria Ceremony at 10:30 p.m. Summer spoke, then we took a silent walk around the track (besides my cell phone going off...it was silent...oops!) looking at all the lit up bags around the track of people who have fought cancer or who have died from cancer. It was a very cool experience. My heart goes out to all who have lost loved ones.
I guess you have to purchase the bags-I wish I would have known, I had a couple other friends/family I wanted to add to the ceremony.
Thank you to all of my friends/family who donated. I was #1 for my team raising funds!!
Wa Hoo!
