The Colton Grand Terrace Relay for Life was a huge success, uniting families from different communities in a heartfelt mission to raise awareness and funds to combat cancer.

This community event showcased strength and spirit as participants gathered to honor survivors, remember loved ones lost, and celebrate the collective fight against this devastating disease.

From spirited laps around the track to engaging activities and emotional ceremonies, the relay fostered connections among attendees, instilling a sense of hope and perseverance.

Together, they demonstrated that when communities come together, they can create positive change and make a significant impact in the battle against cancer.

The community ,Police Department, Local Vendors , Fire Department , and Local Teams joined in celebrating and supporting the cause for a cure.

If you would like to get involved in one of your local community Relay's please visit the Join The Relay link.
