About 150 people attended the 2016 Relay For Life at Silver High School Saturday night. Katie Harlin, organizer, said that this was the 16th year that the event was held there, and that any proceeds would benefit the American Cancer Society's programs, such as service, education and research. Groups of people planned to spend the entire evening on the relay, but others came and went as the event progressed.
