The American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life in Everett will be June 3 and 4.

The team registration deadline is Tuesday.

In Relay for Life, teams take turns walking around a track to raise money for the American Cancer Society.

“Relay for Life brings the progress against cancer to the forefront,” said Christi Beckley, director of Relay for Life of Everett. “Many participants are our family and friends who have been cured of cancer themselves. Their involvement is proof of the progress that has been made not only in cancer cure rates, but also in the quality of life following cancer treatment.”

For more information, call the American Cancer Society at 800-729-5588.
