  • Crawl For a Cure for Relay For Life

    2015-crawl-cure-fernandina-relayBack by popular demand, Relay For Life Fernandina Beach/Yulee teams will be selling tickets to a Las Vegas themed pub crawl. This fundraiser is a great opportunity to dress up and spend a memorable night in Vegas, without boarding a plane… and the Fernandina Pirates Club are one of the most fun Teams on-board.

    Coordinated by volunteers, “Crawl for a Cure” begins at the Crab Trap at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 19th, and includes the Salty Pelican, the Amelia Tavern, the Alley Cat, the Green Turtle Tavern, the Dog Star Tavern, and the Palace Saloon. Need inspiration? Think show girls, Elvis, and the Rat Pack. The after-party begins at 9:00 p.m. at Sheffields at the Palace where glamour, glitter, and sequins are encouraged. Collect a playing card at each location, and the best five-card poker hand wins a prize at the after party.

    Relay For Life is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society and this fundraiser kicks-off the 2017 season for participating teams.

    Tickets, $30.00 in advance and $35.00 at the door per person, include one beverage per stop and admission to the after party at Sheffields. Get your tickets today at participating venues or from any Relay for Life team.

    Relay For Life Fernandina Beach/Yulee will be held May 20, 2017, at Main Beach Park on Amelia Island. The main event, “Carnival for a Cure”, brings our entire community together to remember loved ones lost, honor survivors of all cancers, and raise money to help fight this epidemic – because we believe it is time to take action against cancer!

    Luminaria
    Relay For Life participants and donors remember loved ones lost to cancer and honor those battling the disease by dedicating luminaria.

    Luminaria, paper bags containing votive candles, are transformed and illuminated after dark at every local Relay For Life event. Each luminaria is personalized with a name, photo, message or drawing in memory or honor of a friend or loved one who has been affected by cancer. Luminaria can also be dedicated in support of a Relay participant. Each luminaria candle represents a person. They are our mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, friends, coworkers, and so many others.

    Remember loved ones lost to cancer and honor those battling the disease by dedicating a luminaria bag.
