Celebrate the halfway point of the Man & Woman of the Year campaign with our Student of the Year Grand Finale event at Fabrizio Banquet Hall!

Join us to celebrate DAY ONE of our candidate's campaigns as they compete for the title of Man & Woman of the Year. We will also meet our Boy, Girl, and Champion of the Year: Thaddeus, Marlee, and Nik!

At the age of four, Bri was diagnosed with lupus. So when she became extremely tired and pale three years later, we attributed it to her lupus. But she began to bruise easier and was more fatigued than usual. Her doctors decided to do a spinal aspirate, but we were confident that it would come back negative as the previous one three years prior. We were wrong. Our fears then turned into nightmare when we were given the diagnosis that Bri has JMML, a rare form of leukemia with a 50% survival rate, even with a bone marrow transplant. We were devastated.

The Man & Woman of the Year Grand Finale is the culmination of the 10-week fundraising competition.  The Man and Woman who raise the most funds at the end of the campaign will be named the Man and Woman of the Year and awarded at this event.  It is a celebration of all of the hard work put in by our 2018 candidates! 

The 2018 Rocky Mountain Man & Woman of the Year campaign kicks off on March 8th with a celebration of this year's class of candidates!  This event will start off the 10-week fundraising competition strong!
