ANOTHER GREAT PINK BALL TOURNAMENT
We raised tens of thousands of dollars for cancer research at the event
BY MARY FIEWEGER
The Pink Ball Golf Tournament was a great success . We are waiting for the final totals but records show we raised around $ 74,000 like last year . Lisa Nolen , associate director of development at Oregon Health and Sciences University , said we are absolutely the top golf club in Oregon raising money for cancer research .
The Event Center was filled with 250 golfers and guests . Brenda Gardiner and I welcomed everyone and the party began . A delicious lunch was catered by Fir Point . Nearly 80 gift baskets were sold in the silent auction , bringing in $ 13,080 ! Thanks to Lynn Theiss and the silent auction committee and to those who donated baskets !
Michael Allan Harrison entertained us on the piano . John and Cathi McClain shared their stories as cancer survivors . Dana Richmond and Jan Watson and their crew were very busy selling wine and beer and brought in over $ 5,300 . Seven items in the oral auction brought in $ 8,215 .
Thanks to new Niner Helene Meskers for her donation of beautiful pink lilies for all the tables ! The room was quite fragrant .
