Participants of Relay For Life know about the slogan: celebrate . . . remember . . . fight back.
If you're busy collecting pledges or raising dollars through a bbq, you know the importance of this Canadian Cancer Society fundraiser.
However, it's always great to receive reminders from www.relayforlife.ca
Here is the first half of one email I received today:

Dear Relay Participant,
After
months of preparation and fundraising, your Relay For Life is just two
weeks away. At Relay, you will join with your team, on the track and in
tent city, to enjoy music, food, activities, entertainment and to celebrate
life.
As
you look ahead to the inspirational journey ahead of you, we want to help you
make the most of your Relay.
- By now you have a team name, but have you thought about a theme, costumes and decorations? Be creative and show us your team spirit!
- Relay isn’t just about walking the track. It’s a party complete with activities that will get your team moving and laughing. Participate in the planned activities together or plan special activities for you and your teammates throughout the night.
- While your team needs to keep one member on the track at all times, why not plan special team laps throughout the night. What about a backwards team lap? Or a potato sack race lap?
- Start building excitement now. Get together with your team sometime in the next two weeks to get everyone energized and brainstorm last minute fundraising ideas.
There's lots of motivational material out there. See: www.relayforlife.ca/woodstock or even other CCS sites such as www.fightback.ca or www.thefearlessproject.ca
