Tasteful Halloween theme ideas please

Hello all!  This year our Relay is on June 13th...Friday the 13th at that. Our theme is Fright night Scaring up a  Cure! It has been pressed upon us to be tasteful and respectful. Iknow this is meaning no headstones etc. I wouldn't have even thought to do that at this event but apparently it came into question.

Any way, my idea was to do a Spider themed tent. Now I need some help and ideas. I want to make a giant spider to go on top of our tent with eyes and fangs...cute ones kind of silly looking more than scary. I thought of using a big trash bag for that and insulation tubes they use for pipes for legs. Now that's as far as i've gotten. Can anyone give me any other ideas and I'm also looking for a catchy motto/theme phrase for our tent. Thanks for any help you can give.

Creating positive attitudes and raising money for cancer research!

Hello,

My sister was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2006 when she was only 29 years old.  She continues to remain positive and upbeat realizing that no matter what she goes through, there is always someone fighting a tougher battle.  We often talk about how hard it must be for a child to go through this, as well as their parents.

I have walked and taken part in some other charities over the past few years; however, I wanted to start something I could committ to everyday.  We started Flip It For Life!

Flip It For Life is a uniquely molded company.  We are committed to raising money for cancer research by donating all of our net proceeds from any Flip It For Life product purchased.  Our donations go to the American Cancer Society’s general cancer research.

Chipping In

I currently publish widgets that are created with the CHIP IN tool.  I would like to see RELAY FOR LIFE create a CHIP IN widget so that webmasters may place it on their websites to make their visitors aware of this wonderful project.

I am creating a new giving page on KyJuice and will put more widgets in place as the building process improves.Let me know what you think!
