Are you a graduate looking for opportunities to volunteer with ACS in your new community?  Whether you volunteer for an hour or make a commitment over many months, your time is appreciated – as are you!  There are a variety of ways you can get involved, and any needed training is provided. 

To get started, we need to know a little more about you.  Please submit the form below, and we will then contact you to discuss the opportunities available in your area that best match your interests and meet the needs of our mission.  Thank you!

During the week of March 22, Division Training teams will record a new set of podcasts that will ultimatley become available via iTunes and on RelayForLife.org.

You can take advantage of this opportunity by pre-submitting your questions that you'd like answers to.  During the podcast recording process, we'll try to answer as many of your questions as possible.

Over the summer, we have added lots of great material to RelayForLife.org, and plan to offer lots more by the time you start getting in the thick-of-things with your 2010 events.  Our latest additions to the site include the Summit materials, the official implementation of Relay TV (where you can watch Relay videos as they run, or you can watch most of them "on-demand."

We have also updated the Team Captain Toolkit and added a new resource page for Bark For Life.  We've updated the navigation at the top of the page by adding an "outside the track" section, where you can access pages related to Relay, indirectly. 

Over the holiday season, we'll be working on an upgrade to RelayForLife.org to the most stable version of our platform, which should add some new functionality and usability to the site.  Stay tuned!

Wow!  It has been 6 months since I last wrote anything on my blog.  A lot has happened both in Relay and in life.  Since February I have attended 5 Relay For Life® events and countless events supporting those Relays.

"This past fortnight has been shocking here. We lost a close work colleague and her family; have had two Relay towns burnt to the ground and are hearing so many stories of hardship and horror. Melbourne has been blanketed in smoke for the past week - many of the fires are burning in a one hour radius to the city - so it's very close and a reason why so many deaths - commuter distance to the city. and, unfortunately they are still burning (although now mainly in forests, away from communities),) and the toll will go higher as they only now are sifting through some of the smaller communities impacted by this.
