Relay for Life of Paulding County Seeking Cancer Survivors

Relay for Life of Paulding County will be held May 17-18 at White Oak Park in Dallas. We're looking for cancer survivors to join us during the event's Friday evening festivities.

Relay for Life of Paulding County will be held May 17-18 at White Oak Park in Dallas. As of Wednesday, 73 teams and nearly 900 participants had signed up to take the fight to cancer.

In addition to fun activities and fundraising by the participating teams, Friday night’s festivities will feature a celebration of cancer survivors. As of Wednesday, 175 survivors have registered for the event, which puts us halfway toward our goal of 350.

If you are a cancer survivor and would like to join us at Relay for Life of Paulding County, we ask that you register for the event by going to www.pauldingrelay.org. We want to give all of our survivors a purple survivor shirt from Relay for Life, but we ask that our survivors pre-register on the Paulding Relay website so we can know how many to order.
