Relay for Life at UPEI

UPEI will be hosting its Relay for Life event on Friday, January 20, from 6:00 pm to midnight in the UPEI Chi-Wan Young Sports Centre. Relay For Life is a party with a purpose where we come together to fight cancer and save lives. It’s a fun and active event with live music, DJs, games, sports, and other activities to keep fellow students engaged and active throughout the event. But most importantly, students form relay teams to fundraise and take turns walking or running around the track, passing the baton to teammates to achieve personal or team distance goals and connect with others in this emotionally inspiring event. Every dollar UPEI raises through Relay For Life helps the Canadian Cancer Society have more impact against more cancers than any other cancer charity in Canada. Go to relayforlife.ca and follow the instructions to register a new team or re-start an old one! For more information, please contact Christian Gallant, Relay For Life Coordinator at cgallant@pei.cancer.ca or 902-566-1713, Extension 2222.
