On Thursday, June 18, the Relay for Life will be hosting its first Dancing with the Stars event.

Ticket prices are $15 for ages 13 and up, $10 for ages 4 to 12 and children 3 and under are free.

The event, to be held at the Barn Restaurant, will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a pasta dinner and salad bar.
