The American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life in Matagorda County is back after the pandemic hiatus. This walk raises funds and awareness for cancer research while honoring survivors and those lost to the disease. At night, lanterns are lit to remember those affected by cancer. The event has 17 teams, including Angels Care Hospice, Schulman’s Movie Bowl and Grille, and Matagorda Episcopal Health Outreach Program. Mark your calendars for November 17th from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. at the Matagorda County Fairgrounds. The goal is to raise $75,000 dollars.
