WEST BOYLSTON IS IN IT TO END IT !

     History and Purpose

Our goal is to have our community come together for fun, reflection and purpose, all in the name of benefiting students and contributing to the fight to end cancer.

Since the Spring of 2012, West Boylston Middle/High School has run the “WB Is in it to END it” event. It began with the Class of 2012. During March of their senior year, the mother of a member of the class passed away from cancer. She was another in a long line of parents lost in our small school community. Several students joined together to create a positive experience from their collective grief. That May this student-created, student-run event, modeled after the American Cancer Society’s, Relay for Life, was born.

“WB Is in it to END It” features entertainment, games for kids, food vendors, a basket raffle and teams of twelve or more walking a relay for several hours. Money raised through team registration, local sponsors, basket sponsors and an entrance fee goes into the WB Is in it to END It fund. After each event, profits are split between a donation to the American Cancer Society and the WB Is in it to END It scholarships for graduating seniors who lost a parent during their school years.
