"Not really sure what the Event Planning Team is? Well, Relay For Life Event Planning members help plan and promote the event. They ensure everything is organized, from recruiting and motivating teams and sponsors to planning day-of-event ceremonies. Day-of-event volunteers help with logistics, information, and many other important activities," stressed Jones-Holder. "Relay For Life team members and team leaders volunteer their time toward participating in the event and fundraising. The event is an opportunity for communities to honor cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that has already taken too much.
