Venee Mortimer, second from right, with Team Pacifica, brought their Island Style theme to the Relay for Life in Whangarei last year.
Hundreds of people will spend hours walking around a track in Whangarei this weekend to raise vital funds, and awareness of cancer.
The annual Relay for Life, organised by the Cancer Society, is on at Trigg Sports Arena, at Kensington Park.
The event, which is held around the country, is
a fundraiser for the Cancer Society so "No one Goes Through Cancer Alone".
Relay for Life is a carnival atmosphere of live music, entertainment, games, activities and family fun event for everyone of all fitness levels, during which people celebrate with survivors, remember loved ones lost to cancer and come together as a community to fight back against cancer. It is an ideal team-building opportunity for any workplace.
The minimum team size is 10 members, teams are then encouraged to fundraise a minimum of $200 per person to enable Cancer Society to continue providing services to the community.
