Relay For Life students at Norcross High decorate and fill thank-you bags as part of the marketing part of the club. The bags, which are filled with pins, pens, pencils and more, are for teachers who have donated to the cause.

Norcross High's Relay For Life club has officially kicked off the year with a Relay Fun Day.

At Norcross, Relay For Life is comprised of a team of students who try to raise money for the American Cancer Society through school events, the Internet and word of mouth. This year, the club's goal is to raise $80,000. 

After an icebreaker that involved swapping seats and sitting on top of others' laps last Friday, the club and its members, led by teachers Doug Maloney and Amy Gallois, broke off into four groups to start the Relay season. For four hours, the students brainstormed ideas on how to use publicity, marketing, the Internet and their personal strengths to help reach the team's goal before the end of the school year.
