Best Community Event : Relay for Life
It’s been 14 years since the first Relay for Life took place in Prince Albert and since that first event Prince Albert’s commitment to this cause has continued to grow.
That commitment was proven recently when Prince Albert residents selected Relay for Life as Best Fundraising Event and Best Community Event.
Relay for Life is an annual event that allows communities to celebrate cancer survivors, honour and remember loved ones, and fight back against cancer. This year, that fight with the help of 57 registered teams in Prince Albert, managed to raise approximately $215,000 for the cause.
“It is nice to be recognized by the community for this event,” said Charlene Bernard, manager of the Canadian Cancer Society’s Prince Albert Chapter.
