On Friday, March 21, the University of Guelph hosted its annual Relay for Life event at The Field House, from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Relay for Life is a community fundraising event at which participants walk and run together, passing a baton like a traditional relay race, though Relay for Life is not competitive. Participants raise at least $100 in pledges in advance of the event, though continued fundraising is encouraged. At this year’s event, the University of Guelph raised almost $30,000 dollars for cancer research and educational resources.
