Relay For Life – Simpson County

Published August 26, 2021

Med Center Health is a proud sponsor of Relay For Life. This year’s Relay For Life in Simpson County is scheduled for September 11, 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s event will be a walk-through. Luminaria will be placed around the Square downtown for people to view. At 5 p.m., all the names on the luminaria bags will be read and there will be a special bell ceremony.

There will not be Survivor or Caregiver laps, or campsites for teams. Even so, supporters are asked to remember, celebrate and keep fighting!

Why We Relay

COVID-19 has put cancer patients at risk – attacking already weakened immune systems, delaying cancer treatments, and closing many clinical trials. Because of the impact cancer has had on our lives, we are doing something about it. We joined Relay For Life to remember people we’ve lost and offer up support to anyone in our community who is affected by cancer. And that’s why we need your support!
