Relay of Life event

Crestview Relay for Life event 5-2016

Crestview Student Council sponsored a Relay for Life for high school students and staff (above). There were 365 members of 83 teams, comprised of students and staff members, who walked or ran to see which team could walk the most laps around the track. There was also a team costume contest, while Student Council also sponsored three elementary relays, one for grades K-1, one for grades 2-3, and one for students in grades 4-5. These relays also had a survivors lap and also competed for the most laps walked.  The relay raised $3,200 for the American Cancer Society. Student Council officers Hannah Bowen, Claire Zaleski, and Leslie Skelton were co-chairs of the relays and all Student Council members in grades 6-12 helped plan and run the relays. This is the sixth year for Crestview Relay for Life.
