Relay for Life Raises 88 Thousand Dollars

A big weekend for the Canadian Cancer Society in Kenora.

The annual Relay for Life took in over 88 thousand dollars unofficially.

A final tally is expected to be available later today.

The total topped last year's figures.

The top team was the Graychums, which collected just over eight thousand dollars, followed by Scotiabank at 79 hundred.

A record number of luminaries were also sold, with 800 set up around the track at Lakewood Field Friday night.
