SNAP! — Relay For Life
Twenty-four hours of walking to stomp out cancer. Twenty-four hours of support and celebration for cancer survivors, and remembering those who have died.
Hundreds gathered May 4 and 5 for the 33rd Bakersfield Relay for Life at the Kern County Fairgrounds to raise money for the American Cancer Society. It has raised more than $22 million, mostly for cancer research, since its local launch.
This year’s theme, announced in a speech by Mayor Karen Goh, was “Adios, Cancer.”
“It is so great to see so many survivors, caregivers (and family) ready to say goodbye to cancer,” Goh said.
