Relay for Life and Rachel's Rally Successful

As we're approaching 11:30 tonight, I want to give a giant thank you to the community of Southlake and our amazing CISD staff.  I want to give an extra special thank you to two amazing CHS staff members, Tracy Flores and Karon Hutcheson.  These amazing ladies have helped serve in such an amazing way and we're truly proud of their work.

What was truly a dream has been so much more for many people in attendance.  We'll continue all night here and continue walking for a fight against cancer.

Relay for Life

If you haven't formed a "Relay for Life" team we would still encourage each individual to form a team to participate in this CISD/City of Southlake community service project.  While we continue to strive to enrich our students academics we also believe it is important to continue to expand our students goals for the future and encourage them to work to be positive members of society.

Please also remember this event will conclude with a "Rachel's Challenge" event to begin to complete our year.

Rachel's Challenge and Relay for Life

Relay For Life is Coming to Southlake! In the spirit of Rachel's Challenge, we are proud to announce that this community-wide event will be held May 21, 2010 (times and location to be forthcoming.) Relay For Life is the signature fund-raising activity for the American Cancer Society. At the event, our community will have the opportunity to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and empower individuals to fight back against this disease. Our schools and businesses are encouraged to form "relay" teams to help raise funds that go toward the fight against cancer through research, by raising awareness of cancer treatment and prevention, and by providing support services and resources for cancer patients in our area. Special recognition will go to the schools and businesses with the most teams and donations and to teams with the most creative/original theme. For more information about the event go to www.relayforlife.org. Want to form a team for your neighborhood, business, or church group? Contact Kristie Millican, Team Chairperson, at themillicans@verizon.net. Are you a cancer survivor and want to be an honorary participant in Relay?
