What the heck is Relay For Life?

Relay For Life is a community-based, grass-roots fundraiser for the American Cancer Society.  Teams of 8-15 friends, family members, co-workers, classmates, etc. take turns walking laps around the track (hence the "Relay" part of this).  In the weeks and months prior to Relay, teams work together to raise money for the American Cancer Society.  This year's Relay For Life of Bethel will take place on Saturday, June 8.

More information about Relay in general, and the Bethel event in particular, can be found on our website:  http://www.relayforlife.org/bethelct

Neat, so what's this Kick-off business?

Kick-off is a great way for Relay veterans to hear about what's new for 2013, and for Relay newcomers to learn a little bit of what Relay is all about.  We'll have plenty of information to pass out, you'll get to hear from this year's event chairpersons, and you'll even have a chance to register your Relay team!

Sounds good -- but will there be food?

Of course!  This year's Relay theme is "Birthday Parties", so we'll have some birthday cake to share (along with some other munchies).  We'll also have some fun birthday party games!

We hope to see you there!
