Relay For Life is just around the corner.

This year marks the American Cancer Society’s 12th Relay For Life of South Whidbey.

The event is scheduled to start at 5:30 p.m. Friday, June 20 at the track at South Whidbey High School and runs through 11 a.m. Saturday, June 21.

Friday evening’s formal ceremonies include the Survivors Walk and dinner, and a late night candle lit luminary ceremony to honor those lost to cancer.

Committee members have this year’s relay jammed with events for the family, including a silent auction and the Jail Bail fundraiser. Carnival events are scheduled for Saturday. Music and games continue all through the night to keep up the spirit — and the walkers.
