Pipeline to a Cure
06.09.13
We want to see an end to Cystic Fibrosis soon for all who suffer from this deadly inherited disease, but also for our close friend Kimberly Daskas who has been supporting the cause for over 15 years, ever since her niece Emily was diagnosed with CF. Daskas is currently serving on the committee of the annual Pipeline to a Cure event.
The sixth annual Pipeline to a Cure gala will take place at the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort & Spa at 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 20.
You can join Laird Hamilton, Dave Kalama, and Jamie Mitchell to celebrate the amazing benefits surfing brings to the CF community. This year’s honorees are Mike and Christine Ness.
The evening features silent and live auctions, such as a Dave Kalama Surf Experience, Punta Mita Villa/Mexican Riviera (one week for 10 in a 15,000 sq. ft. oceanfront villa), surfboards, cruisers and amazing artwork! Also enjoy a gourmet dinner and special musical guests – Flashback Heart Attack (pictured above) and the Kalama Brothers. To purchase tickets or inquire about sponsorship opportunities contact Kimberly at kdaskas@vestar.com or visit pipelinetoacure.com.
Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa is at 21500 Pacific Coast Highway in Huntington Beach.
