The final details have now been confirmed and I wanted to share the excitement!  In addition to live music by The Ark Band, we will also have Dr. Kari Kendra with The James (and my oncologist) as our key-note speaker.  We will be serving food as a “Taste of the Arena District” featuring dishes from BD’s Mongolian Grill, Gordon Biersch, Boston’s Gourmet Pizza and Rise & Dine.  We will also again have our amazing silent auction, cornhole and door prizes.  Please help us spread the word and invite as many people as you can to this event!!!

Thanks and looking forward to seeing everyone out on Sept. 13th.
