Relay for Life

This weekend was the annual cancer society 24hr Relay for Life. I was on a team from Kaweah Delta Home Health. We had some one walking continually from 9am Saturday to 9am Sunday. I walked froom 6am to 730am Sunday morning.
We were rasing money for the American Cancer Society. I don't have any totals yet as to the total amount but is was a success. Here are some pictures.

sunrise Sunday morning from the College of the Sequoias track where the even was held.

Our booth when I arrived at 5:45 am Sunday morning.

Luminaries - decorated bags in memory of loved ones taken by cancer, or cancer survivors. At 8pm Saturday night there was a special ceremonry and each bag had a lit candel inside, all the electric lights at the event were dimmed and the track was lighted only by the bags. A lot of the bags had pictures also on them. It was very touching.

The luminaries - what a great idea.

My ole lady is a survivor. We live in a rather rural area, but the turnout is always amazing!
