Thank you, thank you!

It’s tough to know where to start thanking folks who make Susan’s Rally such a successful enterprise.

• We’ll begin with Polo Becerra at Post Oak Grill who continues to support our efforts with the auction site and Finish Line Party with delicious food, great bar, and their
generous brand of hospitality.

• And of course Tillman Fertitta and Barbara Marquis at the Cadillac Bar who were so generous with their help both with the Rally Kickoff Party and with providing the
perfect Starting Line on the day of the rally.

• Jane Martin and Sharon Heaton fixed us up with the perfect Kickoff Party at
Cadillac Bar.

• Rhonda Ross and Mike Moore did a great job to get-out-the-cars. We had more cars than ever entered this year.

• Patricia Page did the often frustrating and mostly unheralded job of getting the invitations designed, printed, and mailed.

• Max Yarbrough and all his helpers got all the cars off with their instructions and good-luck wishes.

• And how could our auctions be so successful without the many long days of work from our auction folks: General Chair Sue Sutton and Co-chair Louise Hefner, with Kathleen Smith heading up the Live Auction, and Tom Yerby chairing the Silent Auction.

• Corporate Chairs Martha and Bruce Lurie successfully made sure our backers from the corporate and foundation world were right there with us.

• D’Artagnan Bebel and our own Lisa Whitlock at Channel 26 Fox TV helped us get the word out to Houston about the Rally. Ron and Jackie at Cox Radio’s 107.5 KLDE were right there, too, telling our story.

• Jamie Watson shepherds our website (susansrally.org), for which we remain so thankful.

• Treasurer Stephanie Dorman works long hours to keep us all honest.

• Beverley Sutton not only keeps an eye on the action at the office, but shows up whenever we need extra help.

• And thanks to Bruce Sogoloff our talented (and patient) graphic designer who has
donated his time working on the newsletter.

• And of course, our fabulous president Bruce Roberson is our sine qua non.

Susan’s Auction Angels

What’s one of the favorite activities of Susan’s Rally? The auctions, of course. And thanks to the following donors to our auctions, ours is one of the best in the city, year after year. Support the businesses below who help us; drop in and say thanks, and maybe do some business while you’re there. And just give a hearty thanks to the individuals who fight breast cancer by donating auction items.
