The purpose of this trip is to raise money for Relay For Life, the American Cancer Society's annual fund-raising event. After passively participating in this event at Shelby County High School (Columbiana, AL) for three years, I have decided to become an active participant. Thus the Relay on the Ridge idea was born. My goal is to secure $1,500 in donations based on the 1,500-mile round trip from Chelsea, Alabama to Waynesboro, Virginia via the Blue Ridge Parkway. Since Shelby County High School's donations for last year's Relay totaled $17,000, this fund-raiser will be but a small part of a much larger effort.
Details about the trip, including all the gritty details about planning this endeavor, will be forthcoming as the trip (March 23-March 28) approaches. I look forward to keeping you all posted on the trip's progress and would like to thank you in advance for donating to Shelby County High School's Relay for Life.
