Teams of local citizens will get together at 4:pm. They will walk until 8:am to raise money and to raise awareness about cancer.
Cancer survivors will walk or wheelchair the first lap beginning at 6:00. The highlight of the event is the Luminaria Ceremony held after dark to honor cancer survivors and to remember those who have lost their battle against cancer.
Those who attend are requested to bring a canned food item. Ensure drinks are especially appreciated because that is what cancer victims use to build up their strength. The canned items will be used instead of sand to hold the luminaria bags down.
