 Dear Friends,
Steve and I are truly honored to lend our support in helping Calvert
County raise money for the fight against cancer. The Rod ‘N’ Reel Restaurant will host the 29th Annual Celebration of Life Gala on
Thursday, August 5, 2010. Too many of us are touched by cancer. Steve lost his mom to breast cancer when he was only eight years
old. I am sure that many of you have stories to share.
As a Calvert County delegate in the State House, I have a front row seat on the health care crisis. I see the current cancer rates, the research needed to cure
cancer, the near breakthroughs, and the struggles that family members face.
The American Cancer Society works hard for quality care, resources and cures for people
struggling with this disease. We need to lend a hand to those who can benefit in the march
toward a cure.
We have been attending the Gala since the early years and we know that it is Calvert’s
“event of the year.” Since 1982 this event has raised millions of dollars for the American
Cancer Society. Good food, good music, good people in an extraordinary waterfront setting
is what August 5th promises.
Let’s all step up to the plate this year and support this event in a very generous way. Times
are tough but cancer is still among us so we need to do all we can in our fight to defeat it.
No little boy should grow up without his mom.
We look forward to seeing you on August 5, 2010 at the Rod ‘N’ Reel.
Sincerely,
Sue and Steve Kullen, Honorary Chairs 2010
