[committee] Welcome to Relay For Life UWA 2018

[RelayUWA Team Registrations]

Hello UCC!



My name is Justin Leong and I am one of your 2018 Relay for Life Club and
FacSoc Officers. You will be hearing from both Harry Do and myself in the
lead up to Relay in October this year.



For those of you that have not heard of Relay before, it is a 24-hour event
run every year here at UWA. Members of the UWA community sign up in teams
and run/walk a relay around Oak Lawn through the night to raise funds and
awareness for the Cancer Council. These funds help the Cancer Council to
provide services and support to people battling with cancer as well as
their carers and families. It is a chance to have a fun weekend with
friends, a chance to stand in solidarity with carers and survivors, and a
chance to reflect on the ways that cancer has affected the lives of each
and every one of us.



Relay will be on weekend of the *13**th** – 14**th** October* this year so
mark it down in your diaries. Until then there are a few things to get
around:



1)    *Start Signing Up Your Teams *– We want to make this Relay the
biggest, best and most inclusive ever! Get your committee, friends and
members together and register. We are currently offering discounted
registration (only $20). If you want to collaborate with another club, just
let us know and we’ll hook you up. ( goo.gl/UWA18

 )



     Relay is an opportunity to engage people in your society that aren’t
in the inner circle of your club. We encourage you to make a wide call for
participants in your social media and newsletters to spread the Relay love
and help us make Relay for Life a special event for each and every UWA
community member this year. There is no minimum size for teams, so even if
there is a small interest in the event within your group, you can still
sign up a team.



2)    *Relay Quiz Night *(3rd May, Timing :7.30pm, Venue: UWA Tavern) –
Relay at UWA is holding a Quiz night this year to launch the Relay year. Get
your teams of 8 people together for this night of fun, games and top notch
banter. ( https://www.facebook.com/events/174970969820461/ )



3)  *Biggest Morning Tea* (24th May, Event information: TBC)- Relay at UWA’s
Biggest Morning Tea allows different teams to come together, selling baked
goods and savoury food items to raise money for Relay. All funds raised
will go directly to your Relay Team’s total. More information will be
released closer to the event.



3)    *Start raising money*! – Every dollar your club raises goes towards
helping Australians that are fighting cancer and their loved ones. If you
ever want help with ideas for fundraising, or engaging your members please
don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. We will have a fortnightly stall
set up from 1pm-2pm on Mondays at Oak Lawn. We will also be contactable via
email and Facebook.



4)  *Event Help- *The Relay Committee is offering its services to help run
BBQs at YOUR events throughout the year. If you are having a party or an
outdoor event and need a helping hand with running BBQs, send us an email
and we will book you in. As long as you get the BBQ and food sorted, we
will be there to run it for you. All proceeds from the BBQs will be added
to your team’s total tally.



     If there is a specific contact in your committee that you would like
us to correspond with, please get back to us with their contact email and
CC them in to the response, and we will liaise with them. Similarly, if you
have any questions in the lead up to the event please feel free to get in
touch with Harry or myself on relayuwa.teamreg at gmail.com or via Facebook
message and we’ll do our best to help you out.



Have a great day!
