Relay for Life is a fun-filled overnight experience designed to bring together those who have been touched by cancer. People from within the community gather to celebrate survivors, remember those lost to cancer and to fight back against this disease. Participants help raise money and awareness. The event is held overnight to represent the fact that cancer never sleeps. Through the Survivors' Lap and the Luminaria Ceremony, we honor the people who have faced cancer first hand, and we remember those who have been lost to this disease.

By joining together, we celebrate life, friendship and work to defeat cancer for future generations.

Our "Team Newcomers" was incredible!   
The team's total, as of Relay night, was $2,102 -- well done ladies!  

On December 21, the eve of the Winter Solstice and the darkest day of the year, OPERATION CHILLOUT delivered our three backpacks, along with hundreds of others, to homeless people who have no place to call home.  The bags were filled with warm clothing and survival gear donated or purchased from our members and Newcomers.  THANK YOU for extending your Helping Hands to relieve the pain and suffering of at least three homeless people this year!

The JERSEY BATTERED WOMEN'S CENTER in Morristown was our first project. We delivered nine gift bags, filled with toiletries, from our club.
