Fillmore/Piru Relay For Life
By Anonymous — Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010
Hundreds of people packed Shiells Park on Saturday for the 5th Annual American Cancer Society Relay for Life fundraiser. Members of 45 teams from Fillmore and Piru walked laps around the field for 24 hours, beginning at 10 a.m. Each team consisted of 10 members, each trying to raise a minimum of $100 from sponsorships. The goal this year was to raise $75,000 towards the society’s goals: advocacy, education, research and support. The first hour of the relay was led by approximately 60 cancer survivors. No fundraising amounts were available at press time. |
