More photos from this past weekend's Relay for Life

Not very often do you get to hear from a cancer survivor of 10 years who hasn't hit 40 yet. But those who attended the first-ever Relay for Life event last weekend at the Manchester High School track did just that, listening to Eagle resident Lisa Mulder talk about her battle with colon cancer at the age of 29.

Overall, more than $20,000 was raised for the American Cancer Society to help fight cancer. Dozens of local residents came to walk the track for 24 hours, and 13 teams set up camp during the weekend.

If you missed it, here are some more photos from the event last weekend, which organizer Chris Fegan said will return next year:
