Kalamazoo, MI- The Kalamazoo Wings, proud member of the International Hockey League, announce that the KC’s Auto Land K-Wings Uplander along with Kalamazoo’s favorite mascot, Slappy will visit the Kalamazoo Relay For Life at the Kalamazoo County Fairgrounds and Expo Center this Saturday, May 30th from 3-5 p.m.

Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s signature activity. It offers everyone in a community an opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer. Teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relays are an overnight event, up to 24 hours in length.

Teams of people from all walks of life have fun while raising much-needed funds to fight cancer and raise awareness of cancer prevention and treatment.

To invite Slappy and the KC’s Auto Land K-Wings Uplander to your next event, contact Julie Collard, director of game operations and promotions at (269) 349-9772, extension 234.
