The Relay for Life of Shelby County is right around the corner. The event is coming up on August 12th from noon to midnight at Forest Park in Shelbyville, and this year’s theme is “Wish Upon a Cure.”

Sarah Lucht is the Senior Community Development Manager with the American Cancer Society. She says there will be plenty of games and costumes related to the “Wish Upon a Cure” theme.

Lucht says participants don’t need to be walking for 12 hours to participate. She says the event is about celebrating survivors of cancer.

Lucht says anyone with any questions should feel free to ask.
