Relay Day!!! On April 13, 2007 Valdosta State University hosted Relay For Life on the front lawn of campus. I participated on the F.Y.E team with many of my classmates. Every team must have a booth and sell something, our booth had tie-dye towels!

The money that we raised in the booth, also went to the American Cancer Society.

Relay For Life activities…
At every Relay For Life there are fun activities to keep everyone awake and entertained. I participated in a water balloon throwing contest and freeze tag…which I won! I also helped Sebastien and Bobby with the woman-less pageant.

Why community service is important...
Community service is an important extra-curricular activity that everyone should experience. I really feel fortunate, and I am glad I can give back to the community that has helped me. Doing community service has taught me most importantly to be humble and thankful for everything I have.
