The American Cancer Society has scheduled several West Valley events for residents wishing to participate and promote the fight against cancer.

A “Bowling Over Cancer” event takes place 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 11, at Lakeview Lanes, and a benefit concert is 4-6 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 2, in the Foundation Webb/Powell rooms. The group Senior Moments will perform at this BYOB event. Tickets are $10 or reserve a table of eight for $150. There will also be a 50/50 raffle and luminaria for sale at the event. The group, as well as the Foundation, are donating their services, so all proceeds go to the Sun Cities American Cancer Relay Fundraiser.

The biggest event is the 13th annual American Cancer Society Relay for Life of the Sun Cities, which will be 3-8 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 16, at Beardsley Park. For more information, to sign up, dedicate a luminaria, start or join a team or to make a donation visit relayforlife.org/suncitiesaz or contact Marilynn Shaw at 541-980-4444 or shaw.marilynn@gmail.com.

A kick-off meeting is 1 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13, in the Sun City West Foundation Webb Room.
