The Loudoun County Democratic Committee will be sponsoring Relay for Life teams to walk in the Relay for Life at Heritage high school on June 12-13th. We already have one full team (15 people) and are now putting together a second!
Our Reason to Relay
Fighting cancer is a team effort. The impact we can make together is much greater than what any of us could do alone.
At the American Cancer Society Relay For Life, our team will camp out overnight and take turns walking around the track to raise money and awareness to help the American Cancer Society save more lives from cancer. By joining or donating to our team, you will be a part of a life-changing event that gives everyone in the community a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that takes too much.
Please make a donation, or join our team and help us create a world where cancer can no longer claim another year of anyone’s life.
Ellen Heald is organizing the teams, and the LCDC will have a tent at the Relay. We Democrats are committed to our community and are proud to be able to support this great organization.
I hope you’ll consider joining the team and walking that weekend. (There’s more below the fold!)Even if you cannot make the event, you can still support the Relay For Life by going out to dinner!
If you eat at American Flatbread (Map) on May 19th and say you’re there for the “Benefit Bake,” 15% of your bill will be donated to the Relay for Life. If you go out to dinner once or twice a month anyway, consider going to American Flatbread on the 19th this month and eat for a cause.
You should eat at American Flatbread anyway, for what that’s worth. Locally produced ingredients in fantastic pizza accompanied by good beer. What more could you want?
If my wife’s travel schedule allows it. My goal is to RUN my allotted hour – if all goes according to plan, that’s at least 25 laps, about 6.2 miles, a “10K for Cancer”.
I know of at least four Leesburg Democrats who will be there and walking with the Team. I wonder which District will bring the most people?
I can’t wait.
