Cairine Wilson Secondary School students reached the $200,000 mark in total contributions for Relay for Life, in just their sixth year of participation. More than 300 students and many staff members spent the afternoon and evening at the Navan Fair Grounds in an attempt to reach that mark in May, 2010 and they succeeded.

This inspirational neighbourhood event is a 12-hour, non-competitive relay involving teams of ten people who take turns walking, running, or wheeling around a track. Teams that include families, friends, and corporations prove how a community can rally to encourage its members.

Each team camps out on the grounds of the track, enjoying entertaiment, and sharing in a solidarity that provides motivation, strength, courage, and hope to all those impacted by cancer.
