This month we are introducing a new column which was featured in our January edition. Birding with the B’s is of course our two birders, Dr. Bob Gleiber and Dr. Burt Greenberg . It will feature the bird of the Month which the two B’s see that month and have taken a picture for us to enjoy.

Women Playing For Cancer Research culminated their events on January 26th with a luncheon following the golf tournament. Over 200 women partook this year to celebrate the many women touched by cancer and the desire to help eradicate this illness by research supporting Scripps Research Institute, Scripps Florida and supporting four Women For Cancer Research Fellows in Cancer Biology.

The delicious luncheon was followed by a candle lighting ceremony and raffle. Other events held this season to support WFCR was a Neiman-Marcus Fashion Show, Tennis and Pickleball tournaments and a day of playing bridge with the pros. This year, WFCR raised over $225,000, adding to the $1 million dollars raised in past years supporting Cancer Research at Scripps Florida.

Co-Chairs of WFCR are Vicki Wildstein and Gale Salz.
