Lee County Relay For Life

June 18, 2008

Here are additional photos from Friday’s Lee County Relay For Life at The Summit Center in Tupelo. Once again, Relay was a festive event even with the move indoors to escape the muggy humidity and threat of rain.

I had problems uploading to the photo host (Slide.com) this morning, and I was only able to post a portion of my shots. The remaining photos will be added later today (if Slide is more cooperative).


Baldwyn Relay For Life

June 4, 2008

These are photos I shot Friday night at the first Baldwyn Relay For Life. I had planned to stay only through the Survivor Walk, but I got caught up in the enthusiasm and excitement of the event and had a great time. I wound up staying until 11 p.m. 

During the luminary ceremony, I paused from my work to think about the many people in my life who’ve battled cancer. It was very uplifting to see a community like Baldwyn pull together for Relay For Life.

Most of the photos are from the Relay events between 5:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. Unfortunately, my camera began to act funny and then shut down during the womanless beauty review. I suspect one of the contestants broke my camera.
