ACS is 'Like Totally' Excited

The American Cancer Society "Beat It" Committee is proud to announce its new 80s themed event in Bradford. Save the date! Beat It is scheduled for April 18, 2009, at the Pennhills Club. This 80s themed party will help raise funds for the American Cancer Society in McKean County and share the importance of saving lives.

"Beat It is as much an awareness raiser about the progress made against cancer as it is a fund raiser," said event chair John Marasco. "We are really excited about this event. Everyone on the committee has given a tremendous amount of time and energy to make this happen and show our community that when it comes to cancer, together we can beat it."

Beat It is an 80s themed evening with celebrity waiter look-a-likes such as Prince, Indiana Jones and Lita Ford. Auction packages will reflect the times also. "Hungry Like the Wolf," Frankie Says Relax" and Ferris Bueller's Day Off" are some examples. The food will be tastings from several area restaurants and catering companies. Music will be provided by The M80's, a theme band from Erie. There will be raffle drawings, contests and lots of interactive fun.

For tickets and more information, please contact Marie Costello at the McKean County American Cancer Society office.
