We are officially in October and deep in the midst of baseball playoff excitement and this season Fight CRC has some skin in the game! We've been to Target Field, home to this years All-Star Game where advocates got to share our message and throw out the first pitch in the Pitch for Prevention event. We also had an opportunity to engage with baseball legend former KC Royals hall of fame star Frank White who graciously recorded a PSA for the CRC community. We are NO strangers to baseball and for a few of us, this season really heated up! The Fight CRC team is geographically situated.  I, Michael Sola, the Executive VP and wearer of many hats, is located outside of Baltimore, Maryland. Danielle, our Director of Communications and voice to many within the colorectal cancer community, is located outside of Kansas City, Missouri. Can you see where this is going? When the Baltimore O's clad in orange and black take on the Kansas City Royals dressed in blue on THIS Friday, we decided it was time to have a little fun. Let the "trash talk" begin!

Michael VS. Danielle

sola in O tie D at Target FieldThe bet: If the Royals win (good luck ) I have to do a Line Dance to Fight CRC national-spokesman Craig Campbell's  song "Keep them Kisses Coming". I have two left feet, no cowboy boots or hat and absolutely no rhythm. There is a good chance I will hurt myself. If the O's win (and they will) Danielle has to perform Anna Kendrick's "Cup Song". Danielle can't carry a tune and basically has no cup coordination (this is gonna be great). So as this thought process progressed ( via IM, one of us was on vacation - now that's dedication ), we thought of a way to share our humiliation in the event our chosen team was to be eliminated. Why deprive you, our community, of not seeing our hidden talent? fcrc_icon_finance-150x150Here's your chance to see us both in action. Help us reach our fundraising goal by donating and sharing our "Orange is the New Blue Challenge"  and we'll BOTH ante up and perform! It's a win win - who doesn't want to see Danielle sing the Cup Song? Am I right?
