Hourly Themed Laps for Relay Weekend June 7-8, 2025

 



======= WHAT IS RELAY WEEKEND? =======

Relay Weekend is the annual Summertime, 2-day event that marks the end of the Spring fund raising season for Relay For Life in support of research and services provided by the American Cancer Society. During Relay Weekend, participants run (or walk) around the track to show support for cancer Survivors, Caregivers, friends and family, and to remember those that have already entered into rest. ♥ This year, Relay for Life of Second Life has a 36 region long track, and every hour has a fun theme you are all encouraged to participate in as you make your rounds! Get your outfits ready early if you wish and come join us!! Bonus: There are trophies to be won for how many laps you complete by the end of the event! :D


======= WHEN IS RELAY WEEKEND? =======

Join us on Saturday, June 7 at 10am SLT for Relay Weekend's opening ceremony followed by the Survivors & Caregivers Honor Lap at 11am!
