First #Beatcancer Bash to be Held May 26 in Indianapolis

On May 26, 2011 from 6:30 pm-11:30 pm Racing for Cancer and May Indy Tweetup will present the First #Beatcancer Bash at OneAmerica Tower in downtown Indianapolis.

Ticketholders have access to:

• Delicious food from Sahm's Catering
• Two free drinks at the bar
• Great live music
• Silent auction with some seriously amazing items, including rare racing memorabilia
• IndyCar drivers Ryan Hunter-Reay, Tony Kanaan and other special guests

The first 50 people to purchase tickets will also receive a free 2011 IZOD IndyCar calendar autographed by Racing For Cancer's global ambassador and recently appoint LIVESTRONG Global Envoy, Ryan Hunter-Reay.

Tickets are $55 (plus a minor service fee) and can be purchased at http://beatcancerbash2011.eventbrite.com/.  If you are unable to attend, you may still purchase a ticket that will be donated to make attendance by local families possible.

Anyone interested in donating auction items or sponsoring a table at the event to benefit a local family with a loved one battling cancer, please contact Tom Vossman of Racing for Cancer at tom@racingforcancer.org for an information packet.

Proceeds from this fundraiser will benefit Racing for Cancer and its local beneficiary, Little Red Door Cancer Agency.
