Relay For Life Wasserman Park Merrimack NH

The day started out sunny but then became overcast but humid! Luckily the ran was holding off for the 1st Merrimack NH. Relay For Life at Wasserman Park. Participating in the Cancer Relays mean a lot to me because four years ago my Dad died of Lung Cancer. I took a leave of absence from my job to move in with him and be his caregiver until he died the day after Thanksgiving 2004 and 5 months after I got married. The relays are a great way to raise money for Cancer research and awareness, but I look forward to the day that relays are not held because a cure has been found! This relay took place in beautiful Wasserman park. It had an awesome DJ spinning tunes and was very well organized by Kathy and her staff. I met a lot of great people today and I appreciate them sharing their personal stories with me! I'll be back next year :)
