Thanksgiving Thank You's
Thanks Team! In spite of the cold rainy day, Team Lucca showed up in big numbers, once again for the Sacramento's "Run to Feed the Hungry"
I wasn't able to get many photos at the race site with that crazy rain and only got a fraction of the team before and after. Nevertheless it was great to see you all and the brunch at Roxy was just the right note of warmth and delciousness, good friends and family and many reasons to be thankful.
So happy to state that at our post race brunch raffle this year we raised $1670.00 for the Sacramento Food Bank
.

Many many thanks to Jim Geary one of our most dedicated runners who presented us with a check for $1000 on behalf of Team Lucca as a gift from his law firm, Hanson Bridgett to be included with our donation to the Sacramento Food Bank. Thank you kindly to every one at Hanson Bridgett. Your generosity is so very much appreciated.


Also Thank you so very much to all of those who donated some really wonderful prizes:
Martha Dunn, Photographer- Rachel Lomeil, Sacramento Theatre Company, Music Circus, B Street Theatre, numerous wineries, Piatti Restaurant, Sacramento Farmer's Market, American Grafetti Tatoo, Jeannie Bewley -fine jewelry creations, Chef Ian MacBride and Becky, Jan Newton, Hanna Choi, Jen Hart, Erin MacBride, Tracy Murphy, Kristina Dula and Joanne Obata, Macy's, Virginia Curtola, Lucca and Roxy Restaurants, Cosmopolitan Caberet, Tammie Lopez and Jason, Daniel Tofoya, Norma B and Lucky Dog Ranch.

Plus thank you so much to our Roxy Team, Mike Holyfield, Danny Origel and Jeff DePalma for putting together such a delish brunch.

And finally a special thanks to Emily Shile for leading the team through 2011.


Happy Thanksgiving!
