LOOKING FOR HELP WITH SURVIVORS....WE ARE THE FIRST GROUP TO WALK IN WI. AND OF COURSE IT'S VERY COLD OUT YET. LOOKING FOR IDEA'S TO GET SURVIVORS INVOLVED BEFORE THE RELAY ACTUALLY KICKS OFF AT 6PM. LAST YEAR I DID HANDS OF HOPE, LOOKING FOR A DIFFERENT IDEA FOR 2008. THANKS JANICE CO-CHAIR FREDONIA RELAY FOR LIFE.
At our event in southern Illinois last year we hosted a survivor dinner inside the school. Survivors were registered inside the school, then treated to a dinner of sandwhiches, chips/dips, cookies and drinks before the event. We asked local food chains/restaurants to donate sub sandwhiches, iced tea, cookies and chips. It was very nice, but the only problem we had was confusion as to where the survivors needed to be. Signage and volunteers showing survivors where to go would help that.
I posted a topic under ceremonies about this...what to do for the survivors. I'm the newly appointed survivor chair for our event.
Good luck with your even, Janice!
