Upcoming Cancer Events

This message was emailed to the group to inform us of upcoming Relay for Life activities:

Hello Survivor Sisters!

My name is Melissa Brown, and I was recently in Roberts Crafts talking to a woman named Deanne who is a member of your group. I told her that my mother works for the American Cancer Society and is in charge of Relay for Life and Making Strides fundraising events.

Deanne wanted more information about participating in these events. The website is: http://www.cancer.org/docroot/home/index.asp?level=0

Click on Join in the Fight and then participate, and you will find a way to look up events in your area. This year there are relay's in Kaysville, Weber State, Roy, Layton, Bountiful, U of U, and several in the Salt Lake Valley. The making strides event is in October this year and my personal team is called Conciseness for Cans. These events start about April and go till September and October. American Cancer Society also does golf tournaments, although I don't know much about those, as I usually participate in relay's and strides.

 

ACS events are a great way to connect with others, have a great time, and promote the name and cause of your website. You can join a group already doing an event or even better, make your own group! People show up for Relay Events with team names, decorations, and lots of family and friends. I am always trying to recruit new members for my team, and I am currently working on my website. My email is bmelissa@xmission.com 

 

Like I mentioned before, my mother is in charge of the events, and I have been to A LOT  of them, so if you have questions that are not answered by the website, feel free to email me!

Thank you, and I hope to see youngsurvivorsisters at an event very soon!
