RGV Cattle Baron's Ball 2015 Program

WELCOME to the 2015
CATTLE BARON'S BALL
of the RGV
Schedule of Events
On behalf of the
American Cancer
Society, it is our
distinct honor to be
named the General
Chairmen of the 2015
Cattle Baron’s Ball of
the RGV. Please join
us as we get ready to
dust off our boots and
kick up our heels for a
cure at a "Starry Night
Over the Rio Grande."
Young or old, male
or female, cancer is
a disease that does
not discriminate. We
have personally seen
the devastating effects of this terrible disease, and it is
my hope that by supporting and donating our time and
efforts, we might all be able to make a difference.
The Cattle Baron’s Ball of the RGV has a rich history
of hosting the best non-profit event in the Rio Grande
Valley, as well as doing a tremendous job of raising much
needed funds. Said funds allow the American Cancer
Society to continue it's mission of helping people stay
well through prevention and early detection; helping
people get well by reducing barriers to treatments; by
funding cures through ground breaking research, and
by fighting back through public policy efforts.
Last year, the Cattle Baron’s Ball raised $118,000 for
cancer research, and it is our goal to raise even more
this year, but we cannot do it without your help. The
generosity of businesses and individuals in our great
community is something we need to make this year's
event the best yet.
We'd like to thank you for your time and contribution
as we saddle up for a night to remember! Everyone
knows someone affected by cancer, and we invite you
to get involved however you can and help us continue
to make a difference. Together we can finish the fight!
