Happy Relay
season!!! It is officially April, which means our huge event is this month! As
we head full force towards getting ready for April 19th, it’s
important to stop and reflect on the AMAZING progress Relay For Life has made
this year. This time last year we had 78 teams, 583 participants, and
raised $46,169. Currently we have 115
teams,1,042 participants, and $76,481!!! That is absolutely INCREDIBLE
and we are so thrilled that so many people have decided to join in the fight
against cancer this year!
Right
now Relay For Life has so many exciting events going on this month and trust
me, you don’t want to miss out! Now until April 10th we have
an online silent auction going on. Want a $100 giftcard to go ziplining, a
Vineyard Vines tie, an overnight stay at the Boars Head Inn, a football signed
by Coach London, a year long parking pass at Grand Marc? These are just some of
the awesome items we have to bid on, and are great if you want to treat
yourself, a friend, or a family member! Go to www.32auctions.com/relayforlifeatuva
now and let the bidding begin!
April
2nd to April 3rd we are having our $4800 in 48 hours
challenge! Now is a great time to sign up for Relay or recruit more team members!
Whoever raises the most money in these 48 hours will win a FREE pair of Beats
by Dre headphones!!! Free stuff for raising money to fight cancer? Sounds like
a win win situation to me!
On
April 14th in the Amphitheater we will be having a Vermonster Challenge!
Make a team today and eat some delicious Ben & Jerry’s ice cream to
fight cancer! For more information on how to sign up and get involved visit https://www.facebook.com/events/628262340521547/?ref=ts&fref=ts.

fundraising challenges and bar nights as it gets closer to our main event
on April 19th at Carrs Hill Field! There’s so going be plenty
of food, fun, and games! Sign up now at www.relayforlife.org/uva and join us as we
