A little rain couldn’t dampen Forsyth County’s desire to fight cancer. Despite soggy conditions Friday night, more than 1,000 people came out to participate in the annual Relay for Life at the Cumming Fairgrounds. “Cancer doesn’t stop for rain, so we’re not going to either,” said Amy Richardson, senior community manager with the American Cancer Society.
