Relay for Life: 2004

Heya Everyone,

Just to let you know Relay for Life 2004 in Raleigh begins on April 16, 2004 at 3pm and lasts till April 17, 2004.


Relay for Life is a national event that brings communities together to raise Cancer Awareness. Many Fan Forces from around the country have participated in this event and I was thinking it would be a great opportunity for us to support this noble cause.

A few Fan Forces have set up booths next to their camp, I'm not sure if anyone would be interested in doing that but that'd be an idea for us. We could have team members man the booth and have our ones on the track.

I have gathered some information so far on this event and it's listed below. If you are interested in participating in this event let me know or just post below.

It'd be a great event for us to participate in and I think it'd be worthwhile. It's great exercise and it'd be a great way to help get in shape.

Anyways here's the information that I got from the website which can be found below the information:

From the ACS Webpage Calendar of Events:
