Because TV, aka the developer, has forbidden the annual Real Relay for Life to take place on Village property.

There are over 70 teams in the Villages who raise funds and participate in the annual Really for Life which includes the Survivors Walk.

At last Wednesday's meeting representatives of these teams were told that all support for Relay has ended,
but were more than welcome to get on the Moffit bus or go elsewhere .

Therefore any Villager who wishes to participate in the Relay for Life next year will have to go to a neighboring community and will not be able to walk in their own hometown.
