AUBURN — The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Androscoggin County gives everyone in the community a chance to help the society save lives and create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. Register a team today by visiting RelayForLife.org/androscogginme or by calling 1-800-227-2345.

Former and current cancer patients, those who have lost a loved one to cancer, families, businesses, faith-based and civic organizations, and anyone wanting to make a difference in the fight against cancer are invited to take part. Relay For Life will take place from 3 p.m. on June 16 through 7 a.m. on June 17 at Edward Little High School athletic field.

Relay For Life events are held overnight as individuals and teams camp out at an athletic track, park or other gathering area, with the goal of keeping at least one team member on the track or pathway at all times throughout the evening. Teams do most of their fundraising prior to the event, but some teams also hold creative fundraisers at their camp sites during Relay.

Information about how to form a team or become involved in Relay For Life is available at RelayForLife.org/androscogginme or by calling 1-800-227-2345.
