Meghan Gaule (’08) will be hosting a fundraising event for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society this Friday, April 17 at Barrett’s in Omaha.  The event will take place from 7 pm - close.  See Meghan’s description below.

I am doing a triathlon at the end of June through the Leukemia and Lymphoma
Society’s Team in Training program, and as part of the event, each
person has to raise $2900 for cancer research.  I am having a
fundraiser on Friday at Barrett’s from 7-close.  I am hoping to have a
good turnout, so I’m trying to spread the word as best as possible!
There will be some raffles, beer pong, and hopefully some volleyball
if it’s nice out.

Swimming, biking, and running for a cure!
