Hundreds Walk In Wayne To Help Cure Cancer

WAYNE, NJ — Hundreds of people are walking around the track at Wayne Valley High School Saturday into Sunday for the township's annual Relay For Life fundraiser.

The event raises tens, sometimes hundreds, of thousands of dollars for the American Cancer Society. It is organized and run completely by a committee of students from both high schools, with oversight from Cori Mastropolo with the American Cancer Society.

Sometimes hundreds of people walk around the track, sometimes just a few. But someone is always walking, which signifies the ongoing battle people wage against cancer.

Here is a Facebook live video of the opening ceremony and first lap.
