WATERTOWN, June 18, 2013— 2013 marks the 10th Anniversary of the Watertown/Waltham Relay for Life event in support of the American Cancer Society (ACS). The Watertown Savings Bank (WSB) Relay for Life Team is looking to make this a memorable year.
The WSB team is the top fundraising team from Watertown/Waltham, and one of the most successful fundraising teams in New England. One of the major reasons for this success is their annual gala fundraiser, which was held in May. More than $12,200 was raised.
