Rally to Celebrate Life 2007

Rally Aces the Day!

Under the warm autumn sun, 108 tennis players enjoyed a challenging morning on the courts at the Marin Tennis Club and Dominican University.  By noon, when the luncheon guests joined the festivities at Rally To Celebrate Life, our 16th annual tournament was filled to capacity. The event, held on September 17th, honored 19 Bay Area organizations that received to Celebrate Life grants totaling $384,000 in 2007.

Rally 2007

The afternoon found the 200-plus attendees at center court sipping sparkling wine donated by Gloria Ferrer Caves & Vineyards, and enjoying tasty hors d’oeuvres provided by luncheon caterer Olive & Vine.

Linda Blum QuoteGuests were wowed by local tennis pros Pam Nelson and Tarrin Dougery, who partnered for a thrilling round of tennis with the two tournament winners, Linda Roland and Jennifer Bonvechio. A sumptuous lunch and informal fashion show followed, as a bevy of beautiful models – all breast cancer survivors – showed off the latest tennis and golf attire from Net Works and Link Works. No wonder Rally continues to be a sell-out event!

Again this year, Rally was privileged to have Jackson’s and Julie and Mitchell Kertzman as presenting sponsors. Joining them were Wine, Women & Song®, Vicki and John Kryzanowski, as title sponsors.

Shoppers bid on a tempting array of silent auction items contributed by over 250 generous donors, all in the name of those living with breast cancer.

The Rally executive committee is tremendously grateful to everyone who helped make this day of hope and inspiration a huge success — sponsors, donors and guests alike. And to the 30 volunteers who worked so hard all year long to make Rally such a memorable experience…you are the BEST!!!
