Teb's Troops' Third Annual A Call to Arms Fundraising Event
Please join us at L'explorateur on Saturday, May 10, 2008, from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.!
The evening will include a strolling dinner with suggested wine pairings and a selection of Executive Chef Neal Brown's favorite wines and beers at one of Indianapolis's premier restaurants in the heart of Broad Ripple. The event will also feature live music by Chad Mills.
To add to the excitement, we will again have our ever-popular silent
auction…which has always been known to bring about some friendly
competition amongst the guests! The items are sure to attract even the
most timid bidders. Buying for a sports fanatic? We’ve got Colts
tickets, Cubs tickets, autographed Tony Dungy books, an original
autographed Mike Dunleavy jersey, and many more items! Need a last
minute gift for Mother’s Day? What about a gift certificate to her
favorite restaurant, handmade jewelry, a romantic weekend get-away
package, spa treatments, or a Vera Bradley bag filled with goodies!
Looking for something for yourself? What about some personal training
sessions, original signed artwork, a Dyson vacuum cleaner, dinner with
two WISH-TV anchors, and more!
Teb's Troops will proudly present representatives of CancerCare and The Melanoma Research Foundation with $5,000 donation checks at the event.

Teb’s Troops, Inc., is a not-for-profit organization. Our mission is to provide hope, help, and support for individuals affected by melanoma.
Teb's Troops was started when Tricia E. Black, or “Teb,” was diagnosed with stage IV metastatic melanoma in 2005. At the time of her diagnosis, Teb was 29 years old and living in Indianapolis with her husband and 9-month-old son, Sam. Wanting to rally her “troops” during her war with cancer and desiring to make something positive come from the negative, Teb asked her friends to help her design and sell a bracelet, the proceeds of which would go to organizations that support the treatment, prevention, and research of melanoma. Although Teb passed in 2006, her legacy lives on.
Since its inception, the generosity of our loyal supporters has enabled Teb's Troops to raise in excess of $200,000, providing hope to melanoma patients and their families. Teb's Troops has proudly made general donations to both CancerCare and Melanoma Research Foundation and has co-funded three research grants and two separate online support groups--one for melanoma patients and one for their caregivers.
