SALISBURY, MD---Some 63 teams representing over 1,500 students, faculty, staff, families and community members participated in 黑料网’s 2016 Relay For Life, held April 22-23.
Team campsites reflected different cartoon TV shows while carrying out this year’s theme of “Toon in for a Cure.” Senator Jim Mathias joined student co-chairs Siena Manoogian and Carly Berkowitz for opening ceremonies.
