Last weekend we finally had our Relay for Life. It was a huge success and everyone that participated was happy with how it was run. Things were completely different than the previous year and it was fun all around. We had a DJ, live bands, a Miss Relay contest (I got 2nd), food, good people, and an amazing hip-hop dance crew from Hollister (JJs Studio). The guest speakers had very moving stories and the ceremonies went very well. We have raised around $60,000 but our overall goal is $80k. I'm not sure if that is realistic or not but we're pushing for it. Even with the event having come and gone my work is never done! I'm now working on planning the team captain wrap-up party along with figuring out what we need to do differently for next year.
In case you didn't get a chance to donate but would still like to it's not too late yet!! We can fund raise up until August 31st so if you or any of your friends/family are interested then stop by the website and make a donation.

I cannot thank everyone for helping me reach my goal of $1000! I'm completely blown away by everyone's support for such a great cause. And save up because I'll be asking for more in 2013!!!
