Mayor O'Connor rose during Durham Regional Council's meeting Wednesday morning to announce that her staff of 13 people had already organized one team and were hoping to field a second one to take part in the inaugural fundraising event and urged the other mayors and Regional Chair Roger Anderson to do the same. "I think everyone in this council chamber has been touched in some way by this terrible dis- ease," said Mayor O'Connor. The Relay For Life will feature teams of 10 to 12 people running or walking continuously in an overnight relay beginning around 8 p.m. on June | and concluding around 8 a.m. on Saturday, June 2. Each team will be able to pitch a tent on the grounds of the Civic Field and enjoy the entertain- ment and refreshments when not actually running or walking.

The luminaries can be purchased at any branch of the Royal Bank in Durham for $5 a piece or at the Canadian Cancer Society office, as well there will be a cancer sur- vivors' Victory Lap pre- ceding the main relay event.
