Join us on Saturday November 8th at the Kingsport Farmers Market from 5:30 - 8:30 as we celebrate 40 Years of Impact with American Cancer Society Relay For Life in our Region! This year's event will look different than our traditional Relay For Life of Tri-Cities as we celebrate with a full on 1980s party and include all of our neighboring RFL Communities in celebration---so bring on the fantabulous outfits, bodacious hair styles, and get ready to party on! A Best Dressed Contests & Fashion Show, SINGO, Trivia, Food and more will round out this awesome evening full of music, dancing, laughter and more.
Don't worry--we will most definitely still have our Cancer Survivor and Caregiver recognitions and powerful Luminaria Ceremony throughout the evening.

We are inviting ANYONE and EVERYONE who has been a part of Relay For Life over the last few decades to attend from our region---team captains, sponsors, teams, participants, survivors, caregivers, advocates, CPS-3 participants! We want to celebrate with you the amazing 40 years of impact made because of your participation. We will have a displays for all regional events and are putting together a slideshow with photos so please send them to us here or at jessica.poff@cancer.org. We look forward to catching up with old RFL family!
Make plans to join us for our 40th Birthday Celebration of Hope and be sure to invite your B.F.F.!

Anyone who has ever heard the words "You have cancer" is a CANCER SURVIVOR--whether it's been one second or 60 years. Cancer Survivors are invited to attend our dinner which will begin at 5:30.  Anyone else who would like a dinner ticket can purchase one for $10/person.  Dinner is optional and a ticket is not required to attend the event.  Please see the schedule below and contact us with any questions.
