Annual Leukemia Cup Regatta at American Yacht Club, August 2nd and 3rd
July 18, 2008
Where: American Yacht Club, Newburyport, MA
The American Yacht Club in Newburyport is partnering with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to present the annual Leukemia Cup Regatta on Saturday, August 2 and Sunday, August 3, at the Newburyport club located on Water Street.
The two-day regatta, sponsored by Mount Gay Rum, will feature sailing both days and a cocktail party and auction Saturday night.
The Annual Leukemia Cup Regatta, hosted by the American Yacht Club, benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. This year, the American Yacht Club is hosting the event in celebration of a 5-year-old Haverhill boy diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia in April 2005. After enduring more than two years of chemotherapy, testing, biopsies and oral medications, he is now in remission.
Proceeds from the regatta will benefit the Massachusetts chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, a nonprofit organization that relies on contributions to advance its mission.
Boat registration is still available for the regatta. For more information, please call Rebecca Longworth at the society at 508-810-1318 or visit the American Yacht Club website.
