Warrenton, VA- Old Town Athletic Club (OTAC) formed a team for this year?s Relay For Life of Fauquier County on June 2nd at Kettle Run High School, and is asking you to join them.
OTAC Personal Trainer Travis Scarborough has participated in Relay For Life for several years?first as walkers, then as active team leaders. Three years ago, Travis?s wife, Jennifer, became the co-chair of the Fauquier Relay For Life. Their lives, like many of ours, have been directly affected by cancer.
?The first time I attended a Relay for Life, I was amazed at the size of the event. There were over a thousand people there. Everyone there has been affected by the disease or knows someone who has. By participating in Relay, we are refusing to sit by and we are choosing to join in the fight against cancer. We can help and support those with it, we can contribute to the scientific fight against it, and we can educate ourselves and others about it,? Travis explains.
In the past, Old Town Athletic Club and its members have supported Relay teams through various activities such as the ?Womanless Beauty Contest? and bake sales in the lobby of the club.
This year, Old Town Athletic Club formed its own team. The team is a part of OTAC?s ongoing mission to promote holistic health and fitness in the Club?and in the community.
At the event, the OTAC team will camp out overnight and take turns walking around the track to raise money and awareness to help the American Cancer Society create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.
?The team is also here to show our support and love to our members who are currently fighting cancer. It also represents our members who are cancer survivors and those members who are caring for loved ones with cancer. Finally the team is here to honor the memories of those members we have lost to the disease,? Travis expresses on behalf of the team.
The team is open to all OTAC members, staff and friends and family of OTAC members. You can join the team or make a donation online at:

If you are looking for a special fitness challenge as part of the team, you can sign up to be a ?12 hour Walker? for the Relay For Life event. These participants will walk the Kettle Run track for the entire 12 hours of the Relay. Please indicate it when you sign up for the team if you would like to be a ?12 hour walker.?
