Relay for Life of Berrien County has more than doubled its fundraising goal, with more than $63,000 raised as of Wednesday. The event, which takes place Saturday from 3 to 11 p.m. at Lake Bluff Park downtown St. Joseph, set a goal of $30,000.

During the event, there will be a Big C Lumber-sponsored Ninja Warrior course for preteens to play on. A survivor ceremony is scheduled for 6 p.m., with a luminary ceremony overlooking Lake Michigan. Attendees can make a donation to honor a loved one with a luminary.

All donations help fund cancer research, patient care programs, and helping the American Cancer Society save lives.
