Relay For Life

My PR Admin class is undertaking the task of planning the Relay For Life Kickoff for Baldwin county. We split up into teams of three and pitched an idea to the planning committee. My wonderful team of Corinne Burnstein and Brooke Brookins came up with the idea of "Unwrapping the Cure." Our idea behind it was that Relay For Life gives incredible gifts and most importantly the gift of life.

This is a write up explaining the whole concept....

What gift does Relay For Life unwrap for you?

Relay For Life gives a gift to everyone. Relay For Life is working to unwrap the cure but it unwraps so much more. To many it unwraps the gift of hope. Relay For Life unwraps love in a tremendous way. It is an outpouring of love from our community. Most importantly Relay For Life unwraps the priceless gift of life. What gift does Relay unwrap for you?

Our goal was to keep everything uniform and to keep it simplistic, but meaningful. My favorite part of our pitch was definitely the decorations. We used purple and white with silver accents. We painted corkboard to look like presents and pitched the idea of having quotes from survivors as gift tags.

Our pitch was not picked, but I am incredibly proud of my group. We all communicated well and took responsibility for pitch. Brooke and Corinne were a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with them again! In the meantime I am very excited about the theme for Relay this year. Celebrating A Memory is the theme that was chosen and I excited to see how we all work together to celebrate and honor Baldwin County cancer survivors!
