On Saturday, May 16, 2009, Team In Training, featuring Team Meg's Legs held a fundraiser at Oakwood Athletic Club to support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Our teammates, Megan Bekker, Carla Carreon, Stephanie deCrooy, Bonnie MacNab, Zander Sprague and Nancy Yuen are running marathons in San Diego and Seattle to raise funds for cancer research and patient treatment.
The band "256" out of San Ramon donated their talent and rocked the venue.
A silent and live auction were held with such items as a 49ers jersey and photo signed by Bill Romanowski, a Tiger Woods signed package, Rolling Stones photo signed by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, to name a few. BMW Concord donated a Fantasy Weekend rental of a new 328i convertible.
Thanks to Nutrition53 for their support and presence. A huge thank you goes out to the incredible volunteers from Blockbuster Cares, without whom the event would not have been such a success.
Thank you to our wonderful sponsors, Oakwood, A.G. Ferrari, Pizza Antica, El Balazo, Misto Lino, Michael's Ristorante in Moraga, Rheem Theater and Bank of the West. Lamorinda's finest gave back to their community in an amazing way and we are tremendously grateful.
Together we can make a difference.
