Relay for Life

There is a group of DPT students, from different classes, at the MGH Institute of Health Professions who are participating in the American Cancer Society's Boston Relay for Life.  It is an overnight event that will be held at a high school track next weekend (Friday afternoon to Saturday morning) in which we spend the whole time walking around the track as a team.  While we each will not be walking the entire time, there will be at least one representative from our team on the track for the duration of the event.  There will be themed laps, activities, and other events going on throughout our time there.  This event is designed to celebrate the lives of those who have fought and are battling cancer and to remember those we have lost to cancer.  It is also a fundraiser to raise money to fund cancer research as more is learned and discovered to end cancer.  If you would like to donate any amount to Relay for Life under my name, or my team, you can go to our team's Relay for Life website and click on my name.  Thanks so much and I'm looking forward to sharing with you how it all goes!
