One of the dozens of cancer survivors who participated in Friday and Saturday's Relay for Life event makes her way around the track at Steamboat Springs High School. Luther Berntson, co-chairman of the event, said 58 teams and more than 600 wallkers raised in excess of $188,000 for the American Cancer Society. "We were just blown away with the response from the community," Berntson said. "What impressed me was how many people were walking at any give time. The track was just full." The event included an emotional Luminaria Ceremony on Friday night. Participants walked throughout the night before a closing ceremony brought an end to the fundraiser Saturday morning. "Obviously, the No. 1 goal was to raise money for cancer research, but in addition to that, it was impressive to see the electricity going on amongst the participants. Everyone was laughing - it was like a big neighborhood party," Berntson said. "It was a very impressive night." For video footage of Relay for Life, visit steamboatpilot.com.
