    Hi! I have done the Relay for 2 years now. What a rewarding and uplifting experience it is! If I recall, there is a spot on the registration form that you check off. When you get to the event, when registering, she will get a survivors teeshirt and then she will participate in the first lap around the track which is called The Survivors Lap. I hope she enjoys it. Where do you live? When is your event. I live in NY. My event is June 6-7. ENJOY! HUGS!! Cathy

    There should be a 1-800# on the reg pkt I'd call the ACS and ask or look up # for Reach To Recovery, also a part of the ACS. I think they need to know ahead of time so they have enough t-shirts and ribbons for all of the survivors.
    God bless and tell your mom congratulations. hummb
