What a perfect day to celebrate life in Puyallup at the Relay for Life event at Emerald Ridge High School. Hundreds showed up on Friday night to honor survivors, support the families affected by cancer, and walk for a cure. With Mt. Rainier standing in the distance, it was a reminder of the power of healing and the beauty of survival.
Cancer Survivors (dressed in purple) were honored to begin the event before lining up for the survivor lap.
Following the survivor's lap, hundreds lined up to Relay for Life.
Shops, tents, and displays like these were set up across the football field, providing a welcome atmosphere where people could rest, visit, and support the cause.
Overall, Relay for Life raised thousands of dollars at this event to fight the fight against cancer.

Thank you to all those who made this event possible and a special blessing to survivors and families of those battling this deadly disease. Keep up the fight for a cure.
Hi Brian,
My friend ran across your blog site and sent me the url... we are Team Curvey Girlz and the Picture of Emerald City above was our campsite. Just wanted to let everyone one know that this is a super fun event and we would like everyone to get involved! Together we all can make a difference!
