A huge success for Relay for Life in Fort Frances.
Seventeen teams involved in the 12 hour event combined to raise $82,900 with more money yet to come in support of the Canadian Cancer Society.
The Society's Maria Cabral says some of that money will stay with Riverside Health Care in a partnership with CCS.
Jon Glueheisen of Snow White and the Survivors, the top fundraising team, says it's the cause that drives them.
A Relay for Life event also took place in Rainy River, but so far no fundraising total has yet been passed to CFOB-News.
