The Relay for Life has been passed from the community of Maple Creek to Shaunavon.

     Organizers for the 8th Annual Relay for Life have set June 6, 2008, as the day and they encourage teams taking part to begin their fundraising efforts now.

     The 12-hour relay will take place at the Shaunavon Curling Club from 7:00pm-7:00am.  Included in the event will be a kick-off supper and a breakfast in the morning, as well as refreshments and entertainment throughout the night.

     If you are interested in performing, please contact Judy Krause or Laurie Cowan.  If you are interested in sponsoring this event or donating products or services, please contact Vince or Jillian Stevenson.

     Last year, the Relay for Life in Maple Creek raised $115,000 and saw over 50 teams taking part.  Provincially, $2.7 million was raised for cancer research.
