We are going to use them as a send off for our Survivors...we'll be having a group of Girl Scouts giving ballons to the Survivors as they enter the track for the first lap.. & on cue from the speaker all Survivors will be asked to release the ballons....I'm thinking of just what to say at that time... maybe "Survivors lets release the ballons in HOPES for a CURE"....then start the Clebration of our Survivor lap....

Balloon Release
It is when there is like people inm your town a celebration form of getting people intrested. Some people do it after a successful fund raiser at the relay or any where to advertise and get people involved. Fist u usually walk around and hand out balloons and then let a whole bunch of them go into the air. Usually for the relay for life we Have the balloons be purpple and they say Relay For life on them.

My ACS Staff partner has
My ACS Staff partner has given me tons of those purple balloons..but my question is..when do you release them? Why? Is there something symbolic? Is there something written down and then put inside the balloons? ..Just wondering. I think seeing tons of the purple balloons in the sky would be awesome..and I have several.. But someone on an earlier post called it a "ceremony"..so I was wondering what exactly it is!?
Thanks!!
Brenda :)
