13th Annual Lessons For Life Fundraiser
Tickets for the 13th Annual Lessons For Life event are selling fast. Following a successful battle with breast cancer, local United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) professional Brenda Mertz took up the challenge and organized the first Lessons for Life event. Now in its 13th year, Brenda has helped raise over $150,000 to fund cancer research and provide support to cancer patients. In 2011, Mertz was proud to partner with Center for Building Hope and now all proceeds from the event will support the Center's programs for children and families affected by cancer.
