The Youth Steering Committee was formed to involve and mentor youth in leadership roles of the Relay. The committee representatives were chosen because of their leadership and organizational abilities to involve their peers in the fight against cancer.

They also plan and organize activities geared to youth at the Relay. Youth Activities in the process of being planned for this year are a Scavenger Hunt, a Frozen T-shirt contest that is back by popular demand, The Mercury Newspaper Costume Contest, and pick-up games that will be ongoing all day.

The Youth Steering Committee goals are to recruit three new youth teams and raise $3,000 to be used for research, education, advocacy and patient services.

Being a part of Relay For Life is a lot of fun and a wonderful way to raise money for the American Cancer Society and our cancer-free futures. We are looking for volunteers and ideas to continue the tradition of youth involvement in our Relay.
