KAREN HOLLIDAY
Team Recruitment Chair
Karen Holliday – Team Recruitment Chair
I moved to Alliston in 1998 with my husband Rob. We have two children. I work part time. I actively volunteer with Relay For Life Alliston and at The Alliston Community Policing Youth Centre. In 2007 I went to a Relay For Life event for the first time to cheer on my mother in law as she walked the survivor’s lap, I knew at that very moment I had to become a part of this amazing event. I participated in Relay For Life for the first time in 2008. In 2009 I volunteered as well as participating in the event. I joined the Committee in 2010 as Team Recruitment Chair. Relay For Life is more than just a fundraiser. It is an inspirational event when we all come together and fight to make cancer history. Enter a team today or join an existing team, or my team, The Night Striders. See you June 8th, 2012!
