Join Us for Relay For Life of Arnold/Annapolis

On May 21-22, 2016, the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Arnold/Annapolis will be held at Anne Arundel Community College. We will join over 5,000 Relay communities nationwide and around the world in the fight against cancer as we honor and remember those whose lives have been touched by cancer.

Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s nationwide signature event. This annual overnight event involves teams who raise money in advance through donations and fundraising to support cancer research, educational programs, patient services and advocacy.

On the day of the Relay, teams campout and take turns walking or running around the track while they enjoy hours of fun, food, entertainment and camaraderie in a huge celebration of life! Inspirational moments include the Opening Ceremony with Survivor Victory Lap and the beautiful Luminaria Ceremony where candles are lit in honor or in memory of those who have fought cancer.

Cancer survivors are encouraged to register and attend our Survivor's Reception, catered in large part by Famous Dave's. The reception will be held at 5pm the day of Relay, directly preceding the Opening Ceremony. Each survivor is able to invite a caregiver to attend the reception as a guest.

Businesses that are interested in getting involved with the 2016 event are encouraged to contact Jennifer Brown via email at arnoldrelay@gmail.com. We are actively looking for donations of drinks, desserts, coffee, decorations, gift cards, and other various items.
