The Saint Mary's University Colleges Against Cancer group is inviting the community to its 2013 Relay for Life.

The annual fundraising event will be held 6:30 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday, March 15th and 16th, in Saint Mary's Gostomski Fieldhouse.

Teams comprised of friends, families and co-workers will join together and celebrate people who have battled cancer, remembers loved ones lost, and provide an opportunity to fight back against the disease.

Last year more than 300 people participated in the event which raised more than $36,000 for the American Cancer Society.    
                     
Team members will spend the night walking around SMU's indoor track from dusk to dawn to represent the 24-hour fight against cancer. Activities planned through the night include a silent auction, student performances, a newlywed game, late-night Zumba and a chance to win a Kindle Fire.
