“Windham County does it again! The American Cancer Society has announced an outstanding achievement for the Relay For Life of Windham County made up of Relays in Woodstock (NECT), Windham (Greater Windham) and Plainfield (Eastern CT). The Relay For Life walks of 2011 raised a total of $705,889.06 making them the number one per capita county of their size in the nation.
This is not the first time Windham County combined Relays have achieved this remarkable distinction. In fact, this is the 9th year Relay For Life of Windham County has been named #1 in the nation. It is also the 13th year Relay For Life of Windham County has been in the top ten during their 16 year history. These achievements are due to the individual Planning Committees, Team Captains, team members and the many who support Relay For Life through their donations.”
