Why Go: Campbell is a winner in this event — raising more than $2 million since 2000 for cancer research and services for local cancer patients. Organizers aim to continue the high standard this year. Teams of people will camp out and take turns walking around the track at the community center. Because cancer never sleeps, the Relay will be a 24-hour event.
Pricing: Free to attend, but remember this is a cancer fundraiser.
