Last Chance: Relay for Life is Friday

Make a donation to or participate in the annual event that raises money for cancer research.

 

We've seen hundreds of events come and go in the community, but how often does one pass you by that you wish you hadn't missed out on? How about deadlines that creep up on you, whether it's a tax bill or registration?

That's where we come in.

Have a deadline or an event that you'd like to share? It's easy to upload them straight to our events and announcements pages.

We've all been affected by cancer, in some way. The disease, unfortunately, is so widespread that few of us are immune from the devastation it causes.

Every year, a dedicated group of people prepare for the Relay for Life of Greater Milford, an 18-hour event that celebrates survivors of cancer, remembers those who've perished from the disease, and raises money for research.

This year's Relay is Friday and Saturday at Milford High. More than 40 teams have organized; the top fund raiser is a team that celebrates the life of Tracy Smith, who passed away last month.

It's a better time than ever to make a donation or to get involved.
