NORWICH – The Relay For Life Kickoff will take place tonight from 5:30 to 7 in the Morrisville State College Norwich Campus community room, and will include an open house and informational meeting.

“We’re inviting the public to come down and check out what Relay For Life is all about,” said Event Chairperson Marie DeSarro. “People are welcome to stop down and ask questions. We’ll also be presenting a slide show, which will give people the opportunity to see all the different things that go on at Relay For Life.”

Activities planned for the open house include team registration, online registration, and information will be provided for this year’s survivor and entertainment activities and health promotion. Both new and current team captains will have the opportunity to pick up their team captain’s packet, according to DeSarro.

“We’re always looking for volunteers to serve on the committee or at the event, new businesses, families and organizations to form new teams, and for any suggestions how to make our event even more successful,” said DeSarro, who added that there will be refreshments and door-prizes at tonight’s open house.
