Team Members help out by participating in team and individual fund-raisers throughout the year.  At the Relay For Life event, team members take turns walking around the track.  Some will walk in the afternoon.  Some will walk in the evening.  And yes, some will even walk the "zombie" shift (the wee hours of the morning).
