PAR TEE FORE A CURE

There has been a change in the composition of the organizing committee.  Catherine & Don Wilson have decided to take a break.  We sincerely thank them for their creativity, energy and efforts to make this event a success over the last 6 years.

Coming on board are Kathy & John Radmore and Debbie & Pat Fitzgerald.  They have already had a great impact on our event planning for this year.
