In Bastrop, the First State Bank team will gather with other teams at the high school football field to take turns walking or running laps. Each team tries to keep at least one team member on the track at all times. Relay for Life offers something for everyone, from the newly diagnosed, to care givers and friends, to long-term survivors. Relay For Life represents the hope that those lost to cancer will never be forgotten, that those who face cancer will be supported, and that one day cancer will be eliminated. More than 20 years ago, one man took it upon himself to raise money to support the efforts of the American Cancer Society. Today, more than three million Americans participate in Relay events nationwide. The Relay is an overnight event designed to celebrate survivorship and raise money for research and programs of your American Cancer Society.
