THE SANDRA MATTHEWS, LOU GEHRIG (ALS)
GOLF BENEFIT


On Saturday, June 17th 2006, I will be hosting a charity golf benefit at the Carlbeck Golf Club in Carleton Place to raise money for the ALS chapter in Ottawa for Patient Care and Research for Lou Gehrig’s disease.

Golf & Dinner is $40.00
Dinner Only is $20.00

Cheques can be made payable to ALS Society of Ontario

To buy a ticket for this Benefit Please contact myself
Mike Matthews via mike.matthews@ocdsb.ca or call 613-796-2526

There will also be some items raffled off, along with Silent Auctions.

Joel Lamoureux from Y101 will be there to MC!

ALS known as Lou Gehrig's Disease (Amyotropic Lateral Sclerosis), is the most common form of motor neuron disease. It is a progressive and ultimately fatal neuromuscular disease. My mother was diagnosed with this disease in the past year.

* Approximately 3,000 Canadians live with ALS
* Two to three Canadians a day die of ALS
* ALS is a costly disease that affects patients and their families – emotionally, physically and financially.

Please come out and help support this very worthy cause!

Thank you for your support.

Mike Matthews

Hi Mike I sent George an email asking him to put your event on his site. It is
