Fashion show helps cancer program

The Regional Cancer Program at St. Charles Medical Center will benefit from the proceeds of the Leavitt's Western Wear 23rd Annual Fashion Show set for "high noon" on Saturday, November 3 at the Restaurant at Black Butte Ranch.

Tickets for the show are $35, including a champagne lunch. Leavitt's will contribute $25 for each ticket sold to support cancer programs in the region. There are 130 seats available and the event sells out early. For reservations, call 595-1260.

Door prizes for the event will include a $100 gift certificate to Leavitt's, dinner at Black Butte Ranch, a ladies' outfit by Saddle Ridge valued at $220, and other prizes.

John Leavitt, owner of Leavitt's Western Wear, is dedicating this year's show "in the giving spirit of Sally Leavitt." John's wife, Sally, was an active supporter of women's health, St. Charles cancer programs and the Sara Fisher Breast Health Project. She died of cancer in 1999.

"Sally and John have been great contributors and cheerleaders for the events that support our cancer programs and services," said Peggy Carey, RN, director of the regional cancer program at St. Charles. "This is a great way to remember and honor Sally's' commitment to patients and families."
