VIDALIA, La. — After closely monitoring weather conditions, the 2024 Relay For Life of Miss-Lou scheduled for Friday, May 3, at the Vidalia Municipal Complex will go on as scheduled, organizers said.

The main event is from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. with a Survivor Reception before the big event from 5 to 7 p.m.

“Dozens of teams will be setting up fundraising booths with food, fun and so much more,” organizers said.

Highlights of the relay is a luminaria ceremony, where hand-decorated lanterns honor loved ones whose lives were touched by cancer, and the survivor walk around them.

A portion of funds raised this relay support patients of Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center with lodging needs if they need overnight assistance or are too weak after treatments to travel.
