There was some discussion on another thread that some Villagers wanted to participate in Relay for Life.
There will be a Relay for Life on April 13-14. I must have missed the information in the newspaper. But if any TOTV group wants to participate,
here is the information I got about it:
Dear Villages Community Club Leader,
We are writing to invite you and your club to join the American Cancer Society and Relay For Life of the Villages of Hope.
We are committed to making this a great year for Relay and making The Villages of Hope a destination for a cure for cancer! Both of us are residents of the Villages. As Event Chair, I am a retired manager and a have recently moved from Michigan. While in Michigan, I supported Relay in my community as a corporate sponsor and team captain. As Team Development Chair, I have been a registered nurse for 39 years and presently work as a Faith Community Nurse at Hope Lutheran Church in the Villages. I work closely with families and their loved ones who have fought the battle. In addition, I was also a caregiver for my father who had been diagnosed with two types of cancer.
Relay season has begun in The Villages!! We are looking for new teams, volunteers to serve on our planning committee, corporations to provide sponsorships, and survivors/caregivers to be celebrated at the event. Our executive event committee includes Villages community members, local business leaders, Villages healthcare physicians and professionals, cancer survivors and caregivers.
The Relay For Life of the Villages of Hope will be held April 13-14, 2012 at Advanced Urology Specialists/Advanced Prostate Cancer Institute, 12109 County Road 103, Oxford (behind Walmart, off CR 466). This is the opportunity for your club to not only honor cancer survivors and remember people we have lost, but also to raise funds and awareness to help save lives.
We invite your club to put together a team to join the fight against cancer. We and other committed volunteers would be honored to come to your group and tell you about Relay For Life of the Villages of Hope, how to form a team and share more about The American Cancer Society�s mission and programs in our community.
Our Kick Off Celebration is set for Monday, December 5, 2011 at 6:00 pm where you can come learn about Relay for Life and join in the fun. The Kick Off Celebration will be held at Hope Lutheran Church, 250 Avenida Los Angelos, The Villages, FL 32161. Our theme this year is YOU can be a Super Hero and Create More Birthdays! In addition, we have monthly Team Parties (see enclosed card) that you and your club members are invited to attend. At each of these team parties we will share important information about our upcoming event.
Let�s get �more feet on the track�! Please feel free to contact either of us� our contact information is listed below. In addition, more information can be found on our website �www.relayforlife.org/thevillagesfl. One of our volunteers will soon be calling you to answer any questions you may have and to invite you to participate in Relay For Life of the Villages of Hope.
Best Regards,
Deborah Jones, Event Chair Debbie Marisch, Team Development Chair
