CVC Reverse Car Drawing

The 2009-10 fund raising drive began with the fourth annual CVC Reverse Car Drawing at Penn State's Medlar Field at Lubrano Park baseball complex on September 24, 2009.

More than 600 supporters attended the lavishly catered event held on the Medlar Field at Lubrano Park concourse, home of the State College Spikes and Penn State baseball. The concourse was transformed into a garden party for the gala event with stylish landscaping, ice sculptures, wine and drink bars and veranda décor. Lucky attendees enjoyed the lavish catering of Catering with Style by Danny Rallis as they mingled and listened to live music.

During our event in 2008, Coaches vs. Cancer director Steve Greer who had been battling leukemia since the summer gave an emotional speech to the attendees making it a special night for all.

"Having our CVC director, Steve Greer, with us last night was the icing on the cake," Pyle said. "He and so many others who are fighting cancer are the reason we put so much time and energy into CVC. Our committee has a common goal - try to make a difference in the lives of those who have been affected by a disease that has touched all of us in one way or another."

Coaches vs. Cancer Brats Challenge

During the Nittany Lion Hoops Club Wisconsin Tailgate, we held a "Battle of the Brats" outside Beaver Stadium in an effort to raise $10,000 to fight cancer and also determine the best brat eating fans between the two schools. Fans lined up at a blue tent for Penn State fans and a red tent for Wisconsin. Johnsonville Brats donated 2,000 brats Pacifico donated the buns and Sheetz, Inc. donated 2,000 drinks for the contest in which fans were asked to make a $5 donation to fight cancer and received a brat and drink to down for their favorite team.
