The Aspen Club and Spa is proud to announce their 30 Year Anniversary Party on Tuesday, December 18th at 7pm at the Club to benefit stem cell treatments. The party is free to the public and open to all.

This celebration will benefit stem cell treatments for three spinal cord individuals from our community: Amanda Boxtel, Leah Roland, and Kasie Burtard. Amanda recently returned from India having undergone human embryonic stem cell treatment. After almost 16 years of paralysis, her body is coming alive and hope is now a part of her vocabulary!

What a day, what an event. I'm happy to say that the Spin A Thon went over without any problems and we raised a record amount of $30,000. It was really awesome how the community came out to support me and my mission. From 8am til 8pm, 12 straight hours, we rode spin bikes to all kinds of beats, danced and even sang! The silent auction was hot and I only wish I would have thought to do some Christmas Shopping.... WHATEVER, I'm on my way to India for my first stem cell treatment! I can't believe it Me, India, Stem Cells, the date...April 17, after the lifts close...Danno, my husband and main support in India, will then be available. It also gives me time to prepare; my mind, my body, visas, air line tickets, etc...

I'm not quite sure how to thank everyone, all I can say is hear me now; Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I promise to work hard, stay positive, and do my best to find some answers....
