I love food, exploring the best that Louisville has to offer, meeting new people, and of course if I can accomplish all of that in the name of great cause, all the better, (and makes the holiday season feel more important than bowl games which is generally hard to convince me of). If you’re like-minded, please mark your calendars and plan to join your fellow Louisvillians tonight in support of the 15th annual Dining Out For Life event on Wednesday, November 30, 2011.
The Kentucky Derby is billed as the “most exciting two minutes in sports,” but Harbor House of Louisville's Ken-Ducky Derby is an experience unlike any other.

The event will be held at Festival Plaza which is near Joe's Crab Shack at Waterfront Park in Downtown Louisville; starting at noon and will end at 5:00 p.m.
The Louisville Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure will hold the seventh annual Pink Tie Ball on Saturday, September 10, 2011 at the Louisville Downtown Marriott.

A special reception for breast cancer survivors, hosted by Kroger will take place at 6:00 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for other attendees.
I have a healthy full head of hair, not luscious, sometimes dirty, but am lucky that a guy my age still has to get a haircut when his wife or mother tells him he has to. So I'm shaving my head because cancer can strike where you least expect
Good friends of mine recently had thier wonderful daughter diagnosed with Leukemia and I felt helpless. Now I know everyone says their kids are the cutest thing in the world – I don’t have any, so I can be objective (if you are honest with yourself behind closed doors, not all four year-olds are “cute”.)
Wasted weekend? On Monday, January 25, come out to O’Shea’s Pub, 956 Baxter Avenue, and enjoy a pint or a snack and feel better. One hundred percent of the proceeds—food and beverages, lunch, dinner and everything between and beyond—from 11 A.M. to midnight will go Jarrett’s Joy Cart, a charity founded by pediatric cancer patient Jarrett Mynear, who sought to comfort fellow kids battling cancer.
