Entertainment chosen for relay
Organisers for this year's Peninsula Relay For Life have announced entertainment for the March 14 to 15 event.
Activities coordinator Mr Alan Phillips said the charity relay at Woy Woy Oval would provide "something for the whole family" to enjoy this year.
He said entertainment would include the all-girl band Housework Can Wait.
"The girls from the band, Kerrie Garside, Jeanie Fordham, Wendy Walker and Jude Hulson-Calvert have been terrific supporters of The Cancer Council with this year's relay bringing their sixth performance at a Cancer Council event."
Band member Ms Kerrie Garside said the band was looking forward to their upcoming performance on the Peninsula.
"We believe it is a superb cause, so we love to help where we can", Ms Garside said.
"One of our members Jeanie Fordham is a cancer survivor herself and we've all been touched by cancer in one way or another so the cause is very close to our hearts."
Entertainment will commence from 2pm to 10pm on Saturday, March 14, and kick start on the following day from 8am to 10am.
Other entertainment will include Beat'n'Sweet, Rock Hot Four, a variety of local soloists, African drummers and the Singing Hands Choir.
"There'll be massage, Tae Kwon Do demonstrations and a Laughter Workshop by Vibrance.
"Fizzics will be putting on a Liquid Nitrogen Show, Brisbane Water Secondary College will entertain us, and there will be a range of food."
Peninsula Relay For Life chair Ms Viv Corcoran said team registrations were still open for local residents and businesses to get involved.
"Relay For Life is a community event where teams consisting of family, friends and work colleagues take turns to walk or run around a designated track," Ms Corcoran said.
"We encourage people of all ages to register a team, pitch a tent and enjoy the atmosphere."
All funds raised from the Peninsula Relay For Life go to The Cancer Council.
