Light The Way To A Cure For Cancer

It's called the Santa Monica Relay For Life! 

What it is:  A luminary ceremony to honor someone who is battling cancer, or has survived cancer, or in "memory" of someone who lost his or her battle.

On Saturday, August 3, 2002, at Santa Monica College on Corsair Field, luminary bags will line the track and will have the name of a person for whom the luminary was purchased. 

You do not need to be present or participate in the Relay to take part of this ceremony.  But everyone is invited to attend and to light their luminary candles.  It's going to be a powerful event.

Donations for the luminary bags are $10.00 each - you may call to order in advance and they will also be available on the day of the event.

To buy luminary bags or for more information, please call Maxine Tatlonghari at 213-368-8537.
