More than 1,400 people participated in the Canadian Cancer Society’s 11th annual Relay for Life, held June 4-5 at the Cambrian College track. About 400 survivors kicked off the relay by walking the survivor’s victory lap.
Lee Mayer (in the yellow survivor’s t-shirt) was joined at the relay by her family and friends as part of the Ties for Hope team. Mayer, who has been participating for the past four years, said this is her ''fourth struggle'' with cancer.''It’s ongoing,'' she added. Photo by Laurel Myers.
The Manitoulin Transport and Friends team has taken part in the relay every year since it began. The members hung a clothesline outside their tent, displaying the participant t-shirts from each year.
