Debbie McGee, left, a nine-year leukemia survivor, and Montie Mayfield, a one-year breast cancer survivor, lead walkers on the first lap around a makeshift track in the indoor practice facility at Springdale Har-Ber High School Friday, March 29, 2013, during the school's first Relay for Life event. Cristal (cq) Hernandez and Eduardo Martinez, students in Har-Ber's Environmental and Spatial Technology program, spearheaded the project to host the fundraiser which benefits the American Cancer Society. Hernandez said the class plans to continue fundraising for the American Cancer Society after the conclusion of the event. She said the class aims to reach a $30,000 goal by August. The 12-hour walk had 18 teams participate and included in-house fundraising activities.
