Relay for Life 2020

This year’s Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society was a Twilight Beach Walk between the Marriott’s Crystal Shores and the Marco Island Hilton Beach Resort and Spa. For the last 3 years in a row, Marco Island’s Relay for Life efforts hit the first-place mark for fundraising in the state. The 2020 Relay for Life theme was Be Your Own Superhero. When it comes to Superheroes for the Relay for Life, Marco Island is second to none. There must be a lot of Superheroes on Marco Island to have met those lofty marks. Presented by Robert J. Flugger, the 2020 Relay was brought back to the beach for this year’s fun and activities. Although cooler weather prevailed, it was a great time for all who attended. Relay teams volunteer their time and talent to offer food, games and entertainment not only on the day of the Relay, but all throughout the year. The Survivors and Caregivers dinner which is a signature activity of the Relay for Life was held at Mackle Park a few days beforehand. Local fine dining establishments provided dinner.

On Friday, March 6th, the American Cancer Society’s Imagination Ball will take place at the JW Marriott. For more information contact, Sue Olszak at 239-642-6217.
