Congratulations and thank you! The 2008 American Cancer Society Relay For Life of North Valley was a big success, thanks in part to the effort of so many people passionate about the fight against cancer - people like you. This year, more than 32 teams and 337 participants took part to help the American Cancer Society advance its mission to save lives, help those touched by cancer, and empower people to fight back against this disease.

n the days leading up to Relay, teams helped raise much-needed funds and awareness through donations, including those made online through our event's official Web site. More than 32 teams registered on the site and a total of $17,535.00 has been raised in online donations alone since the start of this Relay season.
At the Relay event on April 11, 2008, the community came together to fight back against cancer and celebrate 30 survivors who have been touched by this disease. Many survivors helped kick off the event by taking part in the survivors' lap. After this emotional moment, the path opened up for team members who took turns making their way around to complete the laps that make up Relay.
As the daylight faded over the participants and their campsites, luminaria were lit in honor of those fighting cancer and in memory of those who have been lost to this disease.
At our event, a total of over 600 luminaria helped shine through the darkness and represent the hope that one day, cancer will no longer be a major health issue.
Relay 2008 was an amazing experience, and it took a lot of work to make this year such a success. But remember, even though the Relay itself is over, we can still raise more to help in this fight - donations can be made online through August 31, 2008.
Thank you, once again, for being a part of Relay For Life and for helping to celebrate survivors, remember those we've lost, and fight back against cancer. With your support, the American Cancer Society can continue to work toward a future where cancer no longer threatens the lives of the people we love.
