Cancer Society Recruiting Teams For Annual Relay
The Smith County chapter of the American Cancer Society continues to recruit teams for the annual Relay for Life event on April 20, chapter officials said.
This year’s event theme is “Make Cancer History,” so each team will pick a time period or event in history, and decorate their areas and dress themselves accordingly.
