(KNZA)--The 2019 Relay for Life of Brown County will take place Saturday evening, September 28.
The Relay for Life will kick off at 6:00 at the Walking Trail near the Fisher Center in Hiawatha with welcome presentations and the Survivor Walk.
Teams are invited to walk the Trail and view the luminaries, visit with survivors and vendors.
Food will be available on site and luminaries will also be available until 7:00, with a ceremony at dusk at the Paul Rockey Legion ball field at Noble Park.
The Relay for Life committee is also holding two raffles to help raise funds. One is for a quilt pieced and quilted by the Morrill Library Quilting Club. The other is for a 10-by-16 foot shed, made possible through the donations of several local businesses, to be delivered and set up within 75 miles of Hiawatha.
Tickets for the quilt are $1 a ticket or six for $50. Tickets for the shed are $20 each. Tickets will be available at the Relay until 8:00 from team members.
Relay For Life is an American Cancer Society event that brings the communities in Brown County together to support and raise funds for cancer research.
In case of inclement weather, the Relay for Life will be held inside the Fisher Center.
