relayfor life

Relay for Life was such an inspir-ing event! I loved being able to high fives to the survivors as theywalked around, and it made me feel so ecstatic to have the power to place a smile on their faces. Theevent made me realize that even though I may not know anyone close to me who has cancer; it doesn’tmean I shouldn’t help. Relay for Life also made me thankful that I live in America, the land of care andgiving, because only here would we have amazing fundraisers like this. I enjoyed being part of the eventfor the first time, and I am definitely looking forward to next year’s event -Elizabeth Hang.

Relay for life was amazing, it was my first time and it far exceded my expectations. It was everything i en-visioned. We got to have fun, hang out with friends (Whitney <3), and it was all for a good cause. The only negative thing i have to say about the event was that it was moved to Lega-cy. -Vy Dung

Recap

Summit High Schools Key Club volunteered at Relay for Life on May 10th-11th.They ended the day raising about 300 dollars for Can-cer relief funds. The night involved walking tons of laps, putting friends in jail and later regretting it, Doing nail polish, Selling baked items for fundraising and having a blast vol-unteering. Even though the event was rained out and everyone was headed inside, it was just as good! The event had so many thrills and the fact that all of our time, effortand money went to fundraising for the American Cancer Society made it all the better. The mem-bers who volunteered said that they would love to do it again next year! -Usman Hyder

The Key Club Induction went very well. It was very nice for everyone to be recognized in their old and new positions for the new Key Club year. It was also fun to meet other officers from the other clubs in our division too! I’m so excited to be a newly-elected officer and can’t wait for the new Key Clubyear to kick off! -Elizabeth Hang

HISTORY: Alexandra Scott was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer, before her first birthday. After her fourth birthday, she decided she would hold a lemonade stand to raise money to cure the cancer after getting out of the hospi-tal. Even with the trouble of struggling with cancer, she did it. Alexandra successfully sold lemonade in attempts to cure the cancer. Now Alex’s Lemonade Stand is a Childhood Cancer Foundation that supports children with cancer.
