BC Relay for Life First College Relay in Western North Carolina dents have come up with unique team -by LINDSAY SHIELDS, staff- Relay for Life is a community event to fight cancer. Relay began in Tacoma, Washington in 1984 as a 24-hour event based on the idea that cancer never sleeps. Since then. Relay has been adopted by the American Cancer Society and has spread across the United States and around the world. Groups form teams and schedule one member per team to be walking (or running!) a track at all times. Teams raise money for cancer education, advocacy, research, and service. Relays are custom- built for communities with two exceptions: survivor activities and luminary ceremony. Every Relay opens with a survivor lap where all cancer survivors are honored as they walk. At dusk, bags widi candles are lit, depicting names of cancer victims and survivors.
