Dubuque Jaycees Night at the Fighting Saints Game


Join us as we cheer on the Dubuque Fighting Saints to victory against the Cedar Rapids Rough Riders on Saturday, April 2, at 7pm at the Mystique Community Ice Center. We'll have reserved seating and will be recognized as one of the evening's special attending groups.

This is a great fundraising and recruitment opportunity for our chapter, but to make it successful, we need your help:
  • Tickets are $10 each.
  • Sell 10 tickets and your ticket is free!
  • Any new members signed that night will also receive their ticket for free!
  • Buyers of the first 50 tickets will have their names put in a drawing for the chance to sit in the penalty box while the teams warm-up on the ice.
  • Seats are limited and the deadline for buying/selling tickets is Thursday, March 24.
    (Only cash and check payments accepted.)
  • For tickets, contact Val Willis at 563-583-5555 or irishwilly13@hotmail.com
This is also a chance for non-members to see how fun the Dubuque Jaycees are, so be sure to invite your friends and coworkers who are not yet members to join us for a great night of hockey and Jaycee fun!

 

Relay For Life

 

Relay for Life

My name is Alyson Tasker and I'm the Team Captain roll for the Dubuque Jaycees 2011 Relay for Life team.  I'm proud to say it's the Dubuque Jaycee's 3rd year participating in Relay For Life, which will take place June 3-4, 2011.
 
Being on an American Cancer Society Relay For Life team is an amazing experience.  Picture the scene: you're surrounded by your family and friends, urging each other on to make another lap around the track. The air is filled with the sound of laughter and sometimes tears, as our community celebrates those who have fought cancer, remembers the loved ones we've lost, and fights back against a disease that has taken too much from too many.
 
It would be an honor to have you on our team for this year's Relay For Life. The American Cancer Society is saving lives by helping people stay well, helping people get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back. Are you ready to join the fight?
