The Cancer Council fundraiser's committee hopes to stage a 2022 relay at Birallee Park, Wodonga, in October.
Chair Peter Whitmarsh said although 2021 was a difficult year, the relay's major raffle was well supported and the community's generosity was humbling.
"Our dedicated relay teams are simply extraordinary," he said.
