For nearly 30 years, it has honored those battling and those who lost the battle in hopes of finding a cure.
Lima’s Relay for Life is this week at Spartan Stadium and the public is invited to attend. Even if you haven’t signed up to be on a team, there are plenty of ways you can participate with a silent auction and raffles. The survivors' lap will lead the relay and a luminary service will be at dusk. Just come out and support the effort for a cure.
Cheryl Nagy has helped organize the Lima Relay for Life and says, “Most of the money stays local to help patient support services. A lot of the money goes to research like we’ve funded through the America Cancer Society 49 Noble Prize winners in cancer research which has led to cures of a lot of diseases and control of those that may not be cured. “
The relay is Friday, June 17 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Spartan Stadium. Survivors' lap is at 6 p.m.
