VOICES photo and video contest!
As Relay For Life events gear up in the Great Lakes Division, we want to give you the opportunity to highlight some of your amazing Relay moments through our VOICES Relay For Life photo and video contest!
We know many of you may have some incredibly fun, moving, and inspiring photos or footage taken at your Relay event…why not take this opportunity to share your Relay memories with the rest of the Division?
Does your Relay event partake in a fun and unique activity each year worth recording?
Are there any crazy contests at your Relay event?
Does your Relay event have a moving Luminaria ceremony...or an inspiring Fight Back Ceremony?
Have you seen some great team shirts that should be highlighted?
We want to SEE what the Great Lakes Division is doing to celebrate, remember, and fight back at Relay For Life!
The photos and videos submitted will be judged by a panel of American Cancer Society staff from across the Division. The top five photos and videos will then appear in the September issue of VOICES to be voted on by you, the readers!
