Gympie Region Relay For Life

The Gympie Region Relay for Life is an annual event that has proven significant in raising funds for the Cancer Council.

Throughout the years, it has grown to be an important experience and one that is both fun and heart-warming at the same time, as it supports the Cancer Council in its research and information services.

Each year, the relay event has a new theme and continues to grow in strength. What remains the same is the mission: it provides a platform for the Gympie community to celebrate local cancer survivors, pays homage to their carers, as well as current patients, and remember those who were lost to the big C – all while raising more money to save lives in the future. As a result, you get an experience that will stay with you for life.

The Gympie Region Relay for Life encourages interested participants to register as early as possible since on-the-day registrations will be limited. You can choose to start a team or join an existing team for the upcoming relay. You can relay in memory of a loved one who has passed due to cancer; others do so to show that they’ve beaten the odds and survived, while others do it to make a difference. Awards will be up for grabs for the Best Dressed Individual, Best Dressed Team Site, Highest Fundraising Team, Highest Fundraiser 1 Week Out, and several more. A candlelight ceremony is also an essential aspect of the event.

Kids and adults are all welcome; ticket prices and packages are available for youth and family groups. Those under the age of 18 must submit a Parental Consent Form, signed off by a guardian or parent, to join the event. There are also roles for Youth Team Supervisors available. In addition, survivors and carers can also participate; this is highly encouraged so that you can meet others who have faced challenges in the past and be a source of inspiration.

Gympie Region Relay for Life is a life-changing, fun event that you shouldn’t miss.
