Columbia Farms on Sauvie Island

We are pleased to welcome our keynote speaker — Nestucca Offensive Football Coach Frank Elsasser, sudden cardiac arrest survivor — along with Athletic Director Tevin Gianella. Additional speakers include Dr. Ravi, Medical Director for the David Heller Center at the Providence Heart Institute, and Patrick Gordanier, patient and clinical trial participant. We welcome back our Auctioneer Mark Kuhn. If you were here last year, you know that Mark is perfect for the job and was instrumental in the group raising over $265,000 last year! Let's plan to do it again – do I hear $1500? This is the cost of a portable AED! Join us for whatever level you can give – we greatly appreciate all contributions.
