Well, I am new to this whole thing, but I am excited!
I cannot wait until this all works out and I start working with Relay for Life. It's a really exciting thing and I can't wait to be apart of it. I don't want to sound like some commercial, but I really am excited to do this.
For whoever of my team members are reading this, remember to come up with some ideas for fund raising. I have a list, but I also have some money cans where we can put in some stores (Alfonso's, maybe Dollars & Cents, Eckard (Rite Aid, whatever!)) and see if people will make little donations.
Once we get more organized, I'll start posting more blogs and I'll make charts and things like that. It'll be a way to keep track of what's going on.
Thanks in advance! Can't wait.

Welcome
Welcome Anna!
It IS exciting.
Permit me to give you one word of advice with the coin cans. Make sure to stay organized. Keep track of how many cans are at what locations etc.
Also, I numbered the bottom of my cans to make sure they all got collected before Relay. I also added my first name and phone number to the bottom of each can in permanent marker. The cans can sometimes be forgotten and the stores don't always have a contact to call. I have a friend who has 2 donation cans just sitting in their safe at work, for other events. They can't turn in the money because they had no way to contact the person doing the fundraising.
Even with all of my attempts to keep organized it was still a challenge to gather all of our coin cans.
Good Luck with everything!
