KITES TAKE FLIGHT TO RAISE FUNDS
FOR BREAST CANCER SURVIVORS

June 18-19, 2010

In an effort to raise funds for local breast cancer survivors, the 29th Annual Summer Kite Festival will be held June 18-19, 2010, on the beach in front of the Myrtle Beach Marriott Resort at 8400 Costa Verde Dr., in Myrtle Beach, S.C. The event will take place from 11 a.m. - 5 p.m.

Kites will be given away in exchange for a donation to the first 500 participating children ages 12 and under. Everyone is welcome to attend this free event and come out to fly a kite as well as take a look at free kite flying exhibitions and shows. World renowned kite flyers will be in town to demonstrate their kite flying skills as well as give lessons to those interested in learning how to fly single line as well as stunt kites.

Event t-shirts will also be available in exchange for a donation to Caring In Our Lifetime.

The kite festival is sponsored by Klig’s Kites and McDonald’s. Proceeds will benefit Caring In Our Lifetime, which was first organized in 1997 to raise funds for a local breast cancer survivor. The effort has continued annually to help many more survivors with their medical bills and other expenses related to breast cancer. Caring In Our Lifetime has raised more than $300,000 to help local survivors in Horry and Georgetown counties.

Caring in Our Lifetime’s 2010 sponsor is Carolina Regional Cancer.

Myrtle Beach Pelicans vs. Salem Red Sox
7:05 p.m.

PHOTOS FROM THE EVENT

The Myrtle Beach Pelicans and Caring In Our Lifetime teamed up to fight breast cancer by devoting an entire night at the ballpark to the cause. On Saturday, May 2, the Pelicans hosted their 4th annual “Pink Ribbon Night,” an event dedicated to the battle against breast cancer. During the game that evening, the Pelicans wore pink jerseys as they took on the Salem Red Sox. Throughout the night the limited-edition, game-worn jerseys were auctioned off in an effort to raise funds for Caring In Our Lifetime, a grassroots organization helping women in the Grand Strand area who are fighting breast cancer.

“This is an important night for all of us especially considering that almost every one of us has had a family member or a friend affected by breast cancer,” said Pelicans General Manager North Johnson. “We hope that our fans will come out to the ballpark in force on May 2 to support our efforts in helping Caring in Our Lifetime reach their goals.”

Sunday, October 8, 2006
Noon - 4 p.m.

Now that the temperatures have taken a dip, it’s time to think about putting soup on the burner. A much anticipated annual event, The American Culinary Federation Souper Supper, provides a great meal, chances at prizes and a warm feeling.

More than a dozen of the area’s best chefs will prepare tantalizing soups such as Butternut Squash and Cannelloni Soup with Bacon; and She-crab Soup for this year’s soup celebration. As in years past, the event takes place at and is sponsored by the Tanger Outlet Center off U.S. 501 between Myrtle Beach and Conway.

From noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 8th, soup lovers will line up to pay $8 ($5 ages 4-12; free ages 3 and younger) for the privilege to sample each delectable soup. The entry fee also entitles diners to a recipe book containing every soup they taste, plus a chance to win one of many fantastic door prizes.
Proceeds will be donated to the local chapter of the Caring in our Lifetime, which provides assistance to Breast Cancer survivors in Horry and Georgetown Counties; and to The Community Kitchen, which offers hot meals 7 days a week for the hungry and disadvantaged.

Chefs and locals love this event because they get the chance to meet each other face-to-face. Visitors enjoy sampling cuisine from a variety of fine dining establishments for an extremely low price.

No one ever goes away hungry.

How much: $8 ages 13 and older; $5 ages 4-12; free ages 3 and younger
