Las Vegas
What a great day. Unbelievable. Sorry we did not get this last post up sooner.
You can’t ask for a better place to finish a long trip than Las Vegas. I had the pleasure of touring the Nevada Cancer Institute and I can√¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t tell you what an incredible place it is. It√¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s like a 5 star hotel inside of a cancer center. The CEO Heather Murren is somebody I√¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢ve known for awhile and am always amazed by her accomplishments. Her husband Jim is equally as impressive. What a great facility, great staff and great people in attendance.
After leaving the Nevada Cancer Institute we headed over to my good friend Wolfgang Puck’s restaurant CUT for a fundraiser. As you can imagine the food and the company were amazing.
A big thank you to all who participated in the day and all the wonderful people who hosted us and turned out to support the cause. The day was a huge success and we couldn’t have done it without you.
LIVESTRONG,
Lance
