This year, hundreds of thousands of people will hear the words, "You have breast cancer," and there's a good chance that some of them will be people we know and love. I have chosen to fight back against this disease and help make a difference by participating in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer® walk, and I hope you will join me.

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is our opportunity to honor and celebrate breast cancer survivors, educate women about early detection and prevention, and raise money to fund lifesaving research and support programs to help fight breast cancer. But Making Strides is more than just the name of a walk. It describes the amazing progress we can make if we work together to defeat this disease.

Below is a link to my team page. I hope you will visit my site and sign up to join my team. If you prefer, you can start your own team, or sign up to walk as an individual. Hope starts with me and it can continue with you. Please join my team and walk with us to experience an incredible day of inspiration and meaning, and to provide hope for all people facing breast cancer.

Hope starts with you and me let's walk!

We have several plays that are under consideration, but since they had issues..mainly too long...we are giving the playwright the opportunity to shorten. This is our first year of doing our judging BLIND. Just to be fair and square all the names were removed.

We also have 1-2 One Minute MOVIES this year! Onjay Mrotek is the genius working on those.

So thank you all for your support and talents!

This list WILL get a little longer...when we are able to make those final few decisions!

Thanks to ALL for DONATING your talents to this excellent cause!

For $60 you can put your name on one of these plays as a "producer". make a check payable to The Players (put GAM? in the info line) and get it asap to the players theatre 838 North Tamiami Trail, SRQ, FL. 34236

Special Thanks to...
Our Program Sponsors!
