The annual Relay for Life kicked off Friday evening with the Survivors Lap at Hoquiam High School. The lap for survivors of cancer and caregivers is a way to honor them. After that, the walk went on throughout the night, with some themed laps, such as a “pajama party” at midnight. Some new events this year include a silent auction called the Honor Auction, where people can make a basket in honor of someone lost to cancer or still battling it. The basket would include a photo and description of the person, and items they loved or things that remind their loved ones of them. The event runs through Saturday afternoon at the athletic fields at Hoquiam High School.
