2008 OUTER BANKS HOSPITAL'S FLIGHT OF FANCY GALA

January 12, 2008

This year's theme is "James Bond 2-007". It is a black tie affair in which you must purchase tickets way in advance to raise money for The Cancer Research Center located at the Medical Building behind The Outer Banks Hospital to open in late summer of 2007. Tickets are $500 per couple. The Catalinas are the live band that will be playing while you dance the night away. There will also be a Silent Auction! Please contact us if you are interested in purchasing tickets, making a donation of funds or any item for the silent auction.

2005 Co-Chairpersons, Margaret Wells and Jarie Ehbert

Most people do not realize that they have polyps that need to be looked at until after they turn to cancer. Do not ignore your symptoms if you have soreness in your rectum or anus, feel a hard growth or have diareah or 'pencil-like' stool. Research and knowledge could save your life, or the life of someone you know. Support the effort for Anal Cancer Research and awareness.
