I've been so excited... we are doing crazy events and having fun. Watch out for Stanwood Haggen / Curves for some more exciting events.

If so please contact me. My name is Debbie and I am Chair of a Relay event that weekend in the UK and looking to make contact with another Relay that is on te same weekend.

Many thanks

Debbie 

For those of you in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri, your Task Forces were hard at work this weekend, planning for '08 and beyond.  We have such awesome opportunities in our division, with 720 events - more than any other division out there!

For those of you division and region leaders out there, do you have strategic plans?  We ask our events to craft their plan, complete the 1,000 Day Journey, but do you for your leadership efforts?  How will you train?  Is relayforlife.org part of your plan?  How will you support increases as opportunities for new events decline?  (I'm askin' because I'm lookin' for ideas!!)

I'm excited to help my division with our training plan, making sure we are doing what we need to today to meet our future needs as we change and grow.

Last but not least, our weekend ended with a fitting tribute to Victoria Enmon, a Hero of Hope and amazing young woman whom we lost earlier this year to her fight with cancer.  Her mother surprised us all by being there, and she spoke in such a positive, uplifting manner.  Even when you've done this for 10 years, it's so important to remember why we do this - and to keep fighting!

Hi, I'm new to this so bare with me. I'm looking for somepink ribbon printouts to do a fundraiser on Breast cancer awarenes. I can't seem to find anything. Can someone please help me.

Hi, My name is Linda, I'm a survivor and I've just been assigned to be captain of our RFL team, Faith Followers. I'm a stay at home wife with plenty of time on my hands and I'm going to devote much of my time to getting my team rolling and do fundraisers and whatever it takes to finding a cure for this terrible disease. But as I said I'm new and can use all the advise anyone can give me on how to have the best team I can have.    Thanks ,  Linda

Hi, my name is Linda and I'm new to all of this. I would like to know how you get someone on your Buddy List? I'm 52 years old and would like a Buddy to chat with or just get general information and ideas for Realy For Life. 

Thank You,

Fellow Relayer, Linda

I'm both an event chair and team captain and was trying to come up with cute t-shirt ideas to sell as a fundraiser.  We're a college Relay and our theme this year is Olympics.. Any help would be great!

I am the MD chair at UNC-CH. Our Relay this year is superhero themed. My committee is having trouble coming up with events that we could do at Relay that are Mission Delivery related. I would love to hear your suggestions! Thank you for any help you can give us!

Why do I Relay?

IN MEMORY of Family and Friends

who have lost their battle with cancer.

Candy Geasey-Baca - life long friend

Peter Zanella - Brother-in-law

 I walk for the American Cancer Society because of the family members and friend I have lost to cancer.  There has been so many family and friends that I felt it was my time to step up and help raise the money for cancer research.

Hello fellow Relayers.  I'm in need of your expertise.  We had a team meeting last night and in discussing our team progress somebody requested that I type up a sponsorship form for them.  They have a hard time just asking for donations, they thought it would be easier to ask people to sponsor them and have a form to fill out.

 I'm not talking about corporate sponsors (I've got these forms), I'm talking about friends and family.  So I didn't know if there's a sample on here somewhere that I just haven't found yet.  Or if maybe any of you have done something similar.

 Or if you might have some suggestions on wording.  I've got an idea, but you'll probably have something that I'm not thinking of.  So any input would be appreciated! 

Thanks!
