Back in February Patch brought you the news that the American Cancer Society decided to host a Relay for Life for the Parkville-Carney Community.

At the time, few details were available about the program. Recently though, the nonprofit announced the dates and times for its latest fundraiser.

Parkville-Carney's Relay for Life will be held from 2 from 11 p.m. June 30 at the Parkville Armory, 3727 Putty Hill Avenue, ACS spokeswoman Katie Weber said.

If you're interested in participating you can sign up on the Parkville-Carney Relay for Life page for just $10 — members of the community have already raised $110.

Relay for Life, a team fundraising event for the American Cancer Society, has been held in neighboring communities like Essex, Perry Hall, Dundalk and Towson for many years but this will be the first year that an event is held in Parkville.

"This appealed to me as an area of the county that had a very strong sense of community," Weber told Patch back in February. "People had a sense of being from here — you have your amazing rec center, you’ve got every chain store you could want and strong, independent, locally-owned small businesses community."
