Relay for Life held for 27th year in Watertown Friday

WATERTOWN, New York (WWNY) – The Relay for Life of the North Country was held Friday night.

The relay began with cancer survivors walking a lap at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds as onlookers cheered them on.

That was followed by caregivers taking a walk of their own.

Relay for Life is put on by the American Cancer Society.

It raises money for cancer research and treatment.

Organizers say they’ve raised $5 million in the 27 years of the North Country relay.
