The American Cancer Society would not allow the monies raised for Relay for Life to be split or sent to the fund raising for the new Moffitt Center (The developers PET PROJECT) and so the High School track that had been used in the past is not available this year. In other words the invitation to have the Relay for Life on The Villages property is not forthcoming this year. The developer is very serious in this Moffitt fund raising attempt...

Not too good a decision on the part of the developer and at the VERY LEAST very poor manners to withdraw a standing invitation it seems to me.

There will be a Relay for Life in nearby Lady Lake, but not in The Villages where it was easily golf cart accessible.
