RMEC Relay for Life Team

Eric Pate has set up the RMEC Relay for Life team. You can find our team page at this link. Just click on the link to "Join Our Team". At the moment the Early Bird registration is still an option. I don't know how long this will be in effect. It was supposed to expire 1/31. Registration will be $10.00 once this is removed.

Eric has a paper registration forms for anyone who needs one, but I urge as many as possible to register online, so Eric does not have to manually enter the information. There is a plethora of information on the site for anyone who is not familiar with the Relay for Life.

Please note that we have a commitment from "Triple F" for 50 miles, so this should make it easy on the remaining team members to cover the 24 hour event. Thanks to Frank for his early support and for setting such a lofty goal.


This is a big deal guys. Please consider participating. Eric is currently listed as Captain of our team, but we really need someone else to step up in this role. He has a larger role of the Relay for Life Committee, and should not have to pull "double-duty" as our team captain too.

    it is all day and night. you are supposed to have a person from your team there, so you do notgo the entire time.

    we will work out shifts to make sure we have the full time covered.

    Frank is doing 50 miles, so a large chuck is already covered by the RMEC, however Frank will need support from other RMEC members. . . especially in the late miles, so we should strive to always have at least two RMEC members there at all times.

    If you cannot run in the event, please consider making a contribution to the cause.

    You are welcome to pick out an individual runner from our team to support, but if it is easier, you can make a contribution to the "team" instead. This was you don't have to pick a favorite.

    It would be great to have a 20 person relay team (that is less than 40% of our members).
