Thank you letter from Event Lead, Brent Lockbaum:
Wow, what a great event we had this past weekend. I hope you had as much fun as I did.
Now that I have had a little time to breathe, I thought I would take a minute and thank some of the people and organizations that made Relay For Life of Fort Worth possible.
First of all, I would like to thank our sponsors Lockheed Martin, Frost Bank, Texas Christian University, Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital, Texas Oncology, Encompass Home Health, Genentech, Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center – Fort Worth, Lowes Home Improvement #1511, Mrs. Renfro’s Salsas, CSL Plasma, Kiwanis Club of Fort Worth, Moncrief Cancer Institute, Top Flight Gymnastics Training Center, UNT Health Science Center and Mother Rucker’s Sweets. Without your funds and in-kind donations this event could not happen.
The Castleberry Crushing Cancer team for getting there early and staying late to volunteer your time and muscles to help our teams and event staff, we could not pull it off without you.
Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital, for allowing your staff to support us and for providing the Survivor dinner, which I know the Survivors really appreciate.
The Event Leadership Team, day of volunteers and ACS staff, we have a great team and your hearts are in the right place. Thank you for the countless hours of time and effort that you put in over the past year. If this year?s event is any indication of what we can do, then there is no limit to how far we can go.
All of our teams and participants, without you and the monies you raise, we would not be able to continue the fight and provide much needed cancer research and local programs to support our Survivors.
And finally a HUGE thank you to our Survivors and our caregivers. We do this every year for you, our ?Heroes Of Hope?. Your passion, determination and perseverance, leaves me in awe. You know what they say, we Relay for Life and we will continue to fight no matter how long it takes to find a cure.
Thank you again for everything Fort Worth, we look forward to everyone?s return next year.
