June 26, 2018 - The Relay For Life of Shelby County wants to thank everyone who contributed, organized, and/or participated in this year's Relay.
Included in the festivities was a tree dedication 'In Honor of all Shelby County Cancer Survivors.' It is planted in front of the Windham Civic Center. So the next time you are there, make sure to stop and see the live oak tree planted in their honor. It is a living symbol of their strength, courage, and perseverance.
Through the efforts of all involved we were able to raise over $47,500 this year and over 1 million in the past 13 years. We are proud to live in a county that works so hard in the fight against cancer. Throughout the many years of Relay I know that we have made a difference in people's lives. The money we have raised has resulted in new drug and treatment protocols that have resulted in people celebrating more birthdays, attending graduations, seeing their children get married, and saying "hello, I love you" to their grandchildren. We did that together and that is a legacy to be proud of!
Thank you Shelby County for all the support!
