The SFCS Key Club is taking part in a project sponsored by the American Cancer Society called Relay for Life. This effort is an annual fundraiser for the Cancer Society where participants walk a track to show their support for this important cause.

This year the walk will be held at Eastside High School on Friday, April 30, from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. That’s right…a 12-hour walk/relay! The event will also include food, games and fun. The SFCS Key Club has put together a team of 39 people to support the relay. The team is called Crusaders for a Cure. Someone from the team will walk the tracks throughout the night. Those that are waiting to take a turn to walk will be helping out with a bake sale in the SFCS tent set up next to the track. If you would like to support our Key Club and their crusade against cancer, you may purchase a luminary bag for $10 in honor of or in memory of a loved one with cancer. These luminary bags will be placed along side the track during the event. You may also help sponsor our team through a donation of $100. These supporters will receive a track sign with your family or your business name that will be placed around the track the night of the relay. All sponsor donations must be turned in to Rachel Blakely by Wednesday, April 21. For more information please call Tracie Blakely at 678.5109 or Rachel Blakely at 292.2174. Any donations are appreciated and all are tax deductible.
