Relay for Life at prisons

LEAVITTSBURG — The Trumbull Correctional Institution and Trumbull Correctional Camp here will have an American Cancer Society mini Relay For Life beginning at 8 a.m. Monday.

The one-day relay will feature many of the activities that take place during a typical two-day event. This includes a volleyball tournament, golf, a variety of games and musical entertainment.

It is estimated that 452 offenders will take part in the mini-

relay. All offenders also will have the opportunity to walk in honor of cancer survivors and in memory of those who died of cancer.

In 2007, TCI and TCC hosted a similar event that raised $1,000. No event took place last year.
