Friends for LIFE 2009

I normally link the HomerHouse to the Friends for LIFE blog but here is my latest post for FFL. You can always find the Friends for LIFE page by clicking on the link at the right hand side of the HomerHouse blog. This is my second year as chair for Cobb county, Rob is on my steering committee (it's guaranteed time that we get to spend together), and all three of the kiddos have been on the team for years-- and they do all their own fundraising.
My favorite Relay quote is:
"Raise awareness, Raise money, Raise children who care and Raise the hopes of cancer patients everywhere that we will make a difference."
The theme for Relay for Life this year is:
The Color of HOPE
Our teams mantra is:
"We are Friends with HOPE, we are Friends making a difference, We are Friends for LIFE"

In the furture, if you would like to keep tabs on us go to

This Friday (October 31st) is the last day of early bird registration. If you would like to register for only $5 then you need to do so by Friday. After this week the fee goes up to the normal $10 per person. We already have a great start on our team but if you know someone who would love to be involved with the American Cancer Society, please invite them to join Friends for LIFE. If they cannot commit at this time but would like to stay updated with what we do as a team, just email their information to me and I will keep them in the loop.

Our 1st year:
1 campsite, 10 members, $2,000 raised
Our 5th year:
6 campsites, 53 members, Over $182,000.00 raised-
number 1 team in the 4th largest Relay--in the WORLD--for the last 2 years...
What can we do with the 2009 Relay???
