8 HELPFUL HINTS Here are some helpful tips and suggestions to keep in mind while you plan for a successful. People need to see or hear something 8 or 9 times before it registers. Promoting your often and using a variety of methods will help ensure everyone gets the information and knows how they can get involved. Your Relay Rally kick off needs to have a strong impact on your school. Make sure people come away from it knowing not only what a great it will be and how much fun they ll have, but the importance of it (celebrating survivors and remembering those lost to cancer) and how it connects to your school. Providing cancer prion information is important! Did you know that 50% of cancers are prable? If we can educate people through s like Relay For Life, we can reduce future cases of cancer! Incorporate other things into your Cancer Smart Shop that will encourage participants to check it out. For example, you can sell luminaries, have games and activity sign up sheets or even contests and prizes. Open the Cancer Smart Shop an hour earlier than the registration time. This way, participants will have a chance to visit and learn more about cancer facts and awareness information! GREAT IDEAS! Every school has a unique Relay For Life. Here are some things that other schools have tried that may work for your school too! Add your own ideas as your committee plans how to make this your school s best ever! Choose a theme and/or theme song for your Relay For Life. Use it throughout all of your promotions. As teams sign up, have them put their names on a paper cut out of a Relay t-shirt. Post t-shirts on the wall so others can see how many of their friends have already signed up! Have a cancer facts bulletin board. Post new information every week. Make a giant thermometer to promote how many teams you have or how close you are to your fundraising goal. Page 8 of 9

9 Host a pre- head shave. Get popular teachers or students to shave their head to fundraise or draw attention to reaching certain goals. (E.g. when you reach 25 teams or raise a certain amount of money, a teacher agrees to shave his/her head.) Put cut outs of running shoes on lockers of everyone who has signed up. Include the words Relay For Life and your date. Create a video with footage from the school s past s that shows what Relay For Life means to your school and how much fun it is!
