The LIVESTRONG Summit is bringing together delegates from across the country to be inspired, empowered and trained to lead community-centered efforts to help make cancer a national priority.
The LIVESTRONG Summit is taking place July 24-27, 2008, at the Ohio State University campus in Columbus, Ohio.
And I am so excited to be going to the LIVESTRONG Summit.
At the Summit, LAF will be hosting the LIVESTRONG Presidential Townhall on Cancer. Senator John McCain will participate by sharing his cancer plan with delegates and the Columbus community. Senator McCain is scheduled to speak at 7 p.m. on Thursday, July 24, and all of us who are LIVESTRONG Summit delegates have been invited to attend! LAF has also invited Senator Hillary Clinton and Senator Barack Obama to participate and they have both confirmed.
LAF also announced the following esteemed keynote speakers for the LIVESTRONG Summit: Dr. Richard Carmona, former U.S. Surgeon's General; Dr. Harold Freeman, Ralph Lauren Cancer Center; and Stefanie Spielman, cancer advocate and wife of NFL linebacker Chris Spielman.


I look forward to this experience and I am expecting great things this year between LAF's mission and the mission of "Stand Up To Cancer" in September.
Keep believing with me and "expecting."
