The moment you have all been waiting for is finally here… IT’S KICK-OFF WEEK FOR RELAY FOR LIFE OF BOSTON COLLEGE! The campus’ largest non-sports event will take place on March 28, 2014 at the Plex and we are ready to share the excitement with you. With this year’s travel theme, we will take a journey to the destination of Hope to celebrate those who have won their battle with cancer, remember those we have lost, and fight back against the disease.
