The Relay for Life of Fayette County, which raises funds and awareness for the American Cancer Society’s fight against Cancer, was held Saturday at Leopard Stadium. Eight teams participated. It began with a Survivors Lap during which 25 cancer survivors participated. Event Lead Glenda Munsch said the goal was to raise $40,000 and they had already passed that mark with fundraising still ongoing.
