Luminaria LanternLaunch
At dusk on July 28th, we honoredour loved ones with a special Luminaria
Lantern launch. Each team was able topurchase these lanterns and write a
special quote or the name of the lovedone they had lost to cancer.
Ladies Night Out
Calling all Ladies! Several of our
Edwardsburg Teams hosted Ladies NightOut that brought us some of the best
vendors from Thirty-One, Pampered Chef,
Dove Chocolates and much more to
support Relay For Life and provide women(and men) an opportunity to shop, enjoysome food and win door prizes! Thank youto all that came out and supported Ladies
Night Out.
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is a life-
changing event that gives everyone in communities
across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of
people who have battled cancer, remember loved oneslost, and fight back against the disease. At Relay,
teams of people camp out at a local high school, park,
or fairground and take turns walking around a track or
path. Each team is asked to have a representative on
the track at all times during the event. Because cancernever sleeps, Relays are overnight events up to 24
hours in length.

Holiday Fundraising IdeasChristmas
Create a Tree of Hope in your workplace,
community or church by setting up a lit Christma
to which cut out angels or stars can be added in
memory or in honor of a loved one for a small
donation.
Another idea is to have a Tree of Light ceremo
December. Offer bulbs for a minimum donation o
each in honor or memory of someone touched b
cancer. Then have a Lighting ceremony early in
December and keep the tree lit until Christmas is
A great location would be the front lawn of your
hospital.
Several teams have done Christmas Wreath sale
Order your fresh wreaths from the mountains of
North Carolina for a cost of around $8 each. Have
ladies group place bows on each one for a total
wreath cost of under $10. Then offer the wreathminimum donation of $20 to $25 in your commu
