The team registration fee is $400, which sounds “daunting”, said Thorne, “but it is achievable if each member of the team rais es $40 in pledges.” Teams are now forming. Ten walkers or runners and two coaches comprise a team. Coaches must be over age 18. Team members will raise funds to pay the minimum registra tion fee. The registration cov ers meals during the relay and T-shirts. The Columbia County Pre vention Relay is sponsored by Columbia Community Mental Health, the City of Rainier, Rainier School District and Co lumbia County Public Health. During the 18-hour relay, each team member will walk, jog or somehow stay in motion u n til th e baton is handed to the next team member. The relay is not a race, but is a challenge to keep a team member in mo tion for the entire time. Enter tainment during the night will come from local bands, a DJ, an arts and crafts tent and videos. The pool will be open during part of the event and food will be available. 4 2 9 -1 0 1 1 “We changed to August to take advantage of the summer weather.
