Sailing for Leukemia

June 2, 2008 16:02 by davidr

A warm and windy day can always be a excuse for an afternoon of sailing. Better than an excuse, a good cause only comes along once in a while. On June 7, 2008 , the Leukemia Foundation will be sponsoring their annual benefit regatta on Elliott Bay. Two boats from Pivot+Levy will be participating: Barb and Terry Stosser aboard Trofast, their Nauticat 36, and David and Barbara Rogers aboard Zöe, our Fantasi 44.  For Zöe and John's family who will be aboard, this will be special opportunity to honor a close friend, father and husband who is currently battling Leukemia. Racing under the banner of John’s Eagle Spirit, it is our hope to bring awareness and support to John, John’s family and others impacted by this disease.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services.
