ONE RICH GOLFER NEEDED:  Take a Stand for Paralysis Cure!  By Don C. Reed

Got $1,250 to spare? Know someone who does?  If so, what are you doing on May 24?

The Roman Reed Foundation is putting on a celebrity golf tournament like no other. Click on www.romanreedfoundation.com/events.php and check it out.

Why should you care?  Well, if you know my son Roman, you know he is 100% dedicated to finding a cure for paralysis—and is working with government, education, private charity– and advocates like you– to get the vital research funded.

In Sacramento, our wheelchair warrior is fighting for Assembly Bill 1931 (Torrico), to keep the government funding going there. In the education world, he is working with the Stanford Partnership for Spinal Cord Injury and Repair.

And now—a spectacular golf tournament– to raise some bucks for the Stanford effort.

A great cause, guaranteed great fun! Want to play golf with celebrities?

Jim Harbaugh, Stanford Cardinals Head Coach, and Jeff Tedford, Head Coach of the Cal Bears, will put aside their eternal college rivalry– to compete with golf clubs!

Two of the world’s greatest scientists—Dr. Gary Steinberg, chief neuroscientist of Stanford, and Dr. Hans Keirstead, who helped formerly paralyzed rats to walk again– will update us on the latest in the battle for cure!

Superstar athletes!  Brent Jones, Tim Harris, Shawn Dunston and Alex Smith stand beside us in the fight—as are champions of another arena:   John Dutra, immortal legislator who began the Roman Reed Spinal Cord Injury Research Act;. Stuart Gordon, Gordon & Rees, 2005 CA Lawyer of the Year, Founder of the Bear Backers Cal Alumni;  Former Treasurer Steve Westly, brilliant business and government leader, who lent his strength early to the passage of California ’s stem cell program;

In addition to 18 holes of golf on what has been called the most beautiful course in the world, plus a belly-straining full dinner and lunch, there will be world-class entertainment:  a LIVE CONCERT starring Tim Hockenberry and the Mostly Dylan Band (Tim is also lead vocalist for the Trans-Siberian Orchestra—and Jason Liebman!

At auction will be two spectacular Cabo San Lucas Vacation Stays… Four days and  nights of luxury at the private penthouse of Mr./Mrs.Stu Gordon at the renowned Los Ventanas Resort, (2 packages available.). Or a week’s stay at three time

Kentucky Derby Winner Gary Steven’s and wife’s beautiful personal condo…. a chance to bid on  spectacular sports memorabilia… a football helmet signed by the greatest NFL quarterbacks of the last 75 years,  Johnny Unitas, Y.A. Tittle, Sammy Baugh—and another helmet for modern times signed by legendary Quarterbacks from the last quarter century, including Dan Marino, Brett Favre, Troy Aikman, Steve Young and more…
