Essex Relay for Life, sponsored by the American Cancer Society (ACS), is an all-night event!  Lots of fun that make some serious differences in the lives of cancer patients and their families.  So mark your calendar to participate on Friday, June 8 at 7PM for opening ceremonies... OR, come a little earlier to participate in the Survivors' Dinner... visit the Essex Relay website (www.relayforlife.org/essex) for lots of details, to register your team, make a donation or RSVP for the survivors event.

Also feel free to check out the website for some great fundraisers that will make it even easier to make a difference... get some great food at participating local eateries like Bill Bateman's Express Middle River, visit a flea market, or attend a classic car show at CCBC-Essex on April 28. There are numerous ways to have fun while supporting this worthwhile event at CCBC-Essex June 8-9.
