The Lynbrook Community hosted its fourth annual Relay For Life on Saturday, May 22 at the track of Lynbrook South Middle School on Union Avenue, from 5 p.m. until midnight. The event is a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society.

Cancer survivors — defined by the American Cancer Society as anyone who has received a cancer diagnosis, regardless of where you are in your treatment or recovery — were invited to a special Survivors Dinner that was held immediately before the opening ceremonies. Family members and those who helped them through their journey also attended the dinner.
