Hi everyone,
It has been a very busy summer. Just driving home from San Francisco and working with Emirates TNZL in the America's Cup. We were so close. Also sailed the Trans-Pac on Wizard, the Barn Door winner.
Now I have been asked to join Team Lacey and sail the SFYC Leukemia Cup this weekend. This one is the most important regatta of the year. Our turn to give it up to cancer research. As you know I have been involve the last few years after getting Stage 4 Lung cancer. This is my way of paying it back. It is because of this kind of research that I am alive now. LLS gives over 90% of what they get in to the research. Which is amazing!!
Tad Lacey is an old friend. He is also the commodore of the STYC. I had the pleasure of sailing with him and the Mirthmaker crew to win our class in this year's BBS. During this series, I learned that their son Britt came down with Stage 4 Lymphoma. Check out the Lacey story here http://www.marinij.com/sports/ci_24316733/sailing-marin-leukemia-cup-regatta-hits-home-san?IADID=Search-www.marinij.com-www.marinij.com. When Tad asked me to come back to SF to help, I quickly accepted. This is important, please look up the site and make a donation at : http://www.leukemiacup.org/pages/gba/sf13/dsmith
If the site doesn't work for you, you can also send checks to the address below and I will forward them on.
Thanks for your help
Cheers
