Relay For Life Kickoff 2010!!!

Tonight is our Relay For Life Kickoff for our 2010 season! It will be held at the Camas Community Center at 1718 SE 7th Avenue in Camas, WA 98607. Doors will open at 5:30pm so that teams can begin signing up and committee members will be available for questions! Our presentation will then be from 6:00 - 7:00. From 7:00 - 8:00, we will have more time for teams to sign up and the committee will be available for questions!

We are so excited for our Relay season to start here in East Clark County and are excited with the fact that we already have 6 teams that have registered online! The website is as follows:

Registration fees are regularly $100. That covers the cost of t-shirts for up to 15 team members. It is $50 for Youth teams. For Kickoff only, the registration fee will be half off ($50 for regular teams and $25 for youth teams)! If you bring a BRAND NEW TEAM that has never participated in our East Clark County Relay, and they also register, your fee will be completely waived! What an amazing incentive to help bring new teams in to Relay!

Our theme this year is "Making Cancer Walk the Plank"! So start planning your tent site decoration for the event! And if you are coming to kickoff, try coming in some pirate themed attire!

Meetings for this year will be the 2nd Monday of every month at the Camas Public Library in the upstairs meeting rooms! Same times as before! 5:30-6:30 for Committee members and 7:00-8:00pm for Team Captains!

We are still looking for a few good men and women to be on our Committee! If you are interested in helping us plan a wonderful 2010 Relay For Life, please let me know! The more we people we have to help plan the event, the better it will be!

Our goals this year are as follows:

84 Teams
200 Survivors
$142,010

Can we do it? Of course we can! So please come to Kickoff tonight and register your team, pick up a Sponsorship packet, register survivors, pickup luminaria bags to sell and just come and have fun!!! Hope to see there!

WE WILL NOT STOP UNTIL WE FIND A CURE!!!
