Plans are now under way for the 2011 Relay for Life of Safety Harbor, FL on April 29-30, 2011 at Safety Harbor Middle School. Last year’s Relay for Life was very successful for our community in the fight for Cancer. Collectively the Safety Harbor Relay for life collected over $62,000.00. Most of this money will stay in our community and county. Here are some of the programs available, thanks to the many generous donors.
• Gift Closet - wigs, turbans, breast prostheses, ostomy supplies, etc.
• Road to Recovery - transportation for cancer patients to and from treatment
• Reach to Recovery - one on one patient visitation by breast cancer survivors
• Look Good...Feel Better - professional cosmetologist offers advice and tips for dealing with hair loss and changing skin due to cancer treatments.
• Man to Man - prostate cancer education and support programs
• Hope Lodge- free lodging during cancer treatment
• Pain relieving medication assistance
• R.O.C.K. (Reaching Out to Cancer Kids) Camp- Summer camp for children with cancer
• College Scholarships- for students with a history of cancer
As Team Captain of the Safety Harbor Rotary, I welcome the opportunity to work with the American Cancer Society again. Our team is committed to raising funds to help to continue providing the great programs listed above and to help find a cure for this dreaded disease.

Labor Day Travel: How to Avoid Traffic Jams
Well Labor Day is almost here. If you are one of the millions of drivers planning to travel this weekend, please take your time, be careful and come home safe. Click on the title to view an article from the Wall Street Journal.
Looks like we are having an active Hurricane Season this year. Those traveling to the coast of North Carolina and up to New England, keep a watch out the Hurricane Earl.
Personally, I'm looking forward to the cooler weather. It's been a hot summer.
