Lee County volunteers and American Cancer Society will hold
VICTORY LAPS AGAINST CANCER, on Friday, April 30, from 7-9 p.m. at East Alabama Medical Center’s Spencer Cancer Center on Village Professional Drive in Opelika.
This year’s relay will be different with a “drive through” celebration to honor and remember those fighting cancer, announced Relay co-chairman Randy Causey, a longtime EAMC employee who has volunteered for Relay for more than 20 years.
“Because of coronavirus, Relay will look a little different, but it will happen. Coronavirus hasn’t stopped cancer and those who battle it,” Causey said. “New cancer patients are diagnosed every day and those who are already diagnosed are battling it amid coronavirus.”
